I needed a place for my granddaughter to stay so she could catch a flight the next morning. I've stayed her a number of times and always had good experiences. I spoke to lady at reception and asked if they could look after her and they were great. The next morning they helped her with her bags at the shuttle, got her to the airport, helped her get a baggage trolley and set her off in the right direction for check. Their help was very much appreciated and gave me some peace of mind.

We’ve stayed a few times now. Perfect place for us to stay prior and after international travel. The shuttle to and from the airport is so handy. The staff are friendly, the rooms are comfortable and clean and the restaurant meals are delicious.

Great for catching early morning flights & staying on return during early hours. 24/7 shuttle is great. Ability to leave car there whilst away is very handy, reducing the hassle of retrieving car from the various airport parking places.
