The hotel offers a convenient, regular, and free shuttle to the airport, only a short ride away. My breakfast included customized omelets and an automatic pancake machine. It was quite amazing. The staff at reception, the baggage area, and the airport transfer were always helpful and friendly.

the hotel's dinner was only average and did not quite meet my expectations.
