“Comfortable, clean, welcoming and calm.”
So comfortable, clean and welcoming. The staff went over and above to help me with booking local flights when they were seemingly sold out. They were also super accommodating with last minute changes to my booking with no extra charge. Nothing was too much hassle. A super calm retreat in the middle of a busy and hectic city. I hope to stay again.
