"The room was very clean and the bed and linens were excellent, but our room was on the 4th (top) floor and the ceiling is slanted meaning that you har to duck your head getting in on one side of the bed. ( I’m only 5.5’ or 165cm). When you get to a hotel with four digits room numbers, you know that there are more than 100 rooms on each floor. Our room was the last one at the end of two very long corridors. Unless you enjoy taking your suitcases for a long walk, ask for a room closer to the elevators. The shuttle bus to the airport runs every 30 minutes and takes about 12 minutes."
