Hotel was ideal for visiting local places and was convenient if you plan to take public transportation. more on Travelocity.com

The hotel's location is very good, it's only 10 km away from the airport, and the downtown can be reached by bus that stops near the hotel. more on TripAdvisor

Night security fellow was extremely nice and helpful though. more on Agoda.com
