We needed a location close to the airport for an early departure, we were very pleased with the cleanliness of the property and would have stayed longer to explore the area.
I would like to commend Jesus who was at the desk at check in. He was so helpful, kind, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcomed. He made sure we had everything we needed and made sure we were happy with the room. Thank you so much Jesus for your help and kindness. I'm sure he is a great asset for your company.

Okay place to stay. Bring your toiletries, they don’t carry any. The location is close to nearby shops. It smelled like cigarettes a bit. The staff was helpful.
