Great hotel located near the airport although a distance away from downtown. If you like a quiet and stress-free hotel stay free from city noise and bustle, choose this one. The place is clean (both the interiors and the grounds), the rooms are tidy, and in spite it being a small building, the hallways are wider and the rooms are more spacious than other hotels I've stayed in. The free breakfast fare was basic but satisfying. I'd want to go back to this hotel in the future, even bring a swimsuit the next time because the pool downstairs was tempting.
