It was a good hotel for a one night stay near to the airport. We ate at the restaurant which was ok. The room was adequate, and it did have a kettle to make tea and coffee. We walked to the airport at 5.30am when the gate to the tunnel under the road was open, it took us about 5 minutes. The staff were friendly and helpful. Many thanks.
