El hotel esta a 10 minutos en auto del aeropuerto. Nuestra estadia fue muy agradable, la habitacion muy limpia, la cama muy comoda. El hotel deja botellas de agua todos los dias lo cual es muy apreciado. Tomamos la habitacion con desayuno y estuvo muy bueno y variado. El hotel se encuentra junto a un mall que cuenta con gran variedad de tiendas.
