    Main criticism is that one cannot walk to the airport. That is why I chose the hotel. I was surprised that we had to spend 20 euroes for a taxi in each direction.

    Shower over the bath but this is a minor issue and down to personal preference.

    The staff were lovely - very helpful and happy. The room was a good size, and quiet considering its location. Really close to the airport so very convenient. Nothing to complain about. I thought it was excellent value for money. Free parking too and breakfast included.

    I knew it was 21 € for the taxi but the fact that you could walk the 1,500m for free in 10 minutes makes it a bit hard to bear. Uber is only 8€ and it worked well for this price in the morning from the hotel to the airport (car rental). In the night, when we arrived at 00:10, the Uber rate started at some 9€. But there were so many passengers that the Uber rate increased to 55€ (!) until we had our luggage. So we had to wait in line for some 30 minutes to get a regular cab - and with 21€ an expensive one too. If they only had a proper sidewalk... Again, the hotel was great value in general, if Uber works, all is fine. Only the regular taxi is a pain. (With hand luggage only I still recommend to walk - you need to cross a roundabout but that's the only time you have to be cautious)

    Don't expect the Ritz-Carlton but for this little money you get a comfy bed and a solid breakfast at this Holiday Inn. Staff was friendly too.

    It was ok for one night, but wouldn't recommend for holiday. It is situated next to big and busy streets.

    Great breakfast! Near airport, great for first night, if you arrive at nighttime.

    The nearest hotel to the airport.

    It's not possible to walk to the hotel from the airport. This is therefore not strictly what I would call an airport hotel. They charge 20 euros for the taxi - not the fault of the hotel but it's crazy. A shuttle would be nice. Breakfast is extremely basic.

    This is the nearest hotel to the airport. It was reasonably comfortable and quiet, as well as convenient. I took a taxi on arrival as it was late at night. The next morning I got the bus back to the airport and the hotel are very helpful about explaining how to take the bus.

    More or less regular airport ripoff taxi, which has nothing to do with hotel. They informed us correctly about the price, however a shuttle would be great to have.

    Overall it was a great location for a sleepover when connecting flights. Room was clean, staff was friendly also 24hr coffee was a big plus for me.

    If this hotel had a shuttle bus it would be perfect place to stay for a night near the airport.

    Like a lot of other tourists, we booked the hotel as we had an early morning flight. It is not walkable from the hotel to the airport with a large heavy case and the taxi for a 1km drive costs just over 15 Euros.

    Good budget hotel that was clean and comfortable with helpful staff.

    Finding the hotel was not easy from the airport in a car, even though its less than a mile away

    Chosen for the convenience to the airport. We did not expect the high standards the hotel provides. The staff were exceptionally helpful and the breakfast was fresh and the choice huge. The room was immaculate and the beds very comfortable.

    I think a shuttle to the airport is necessary considering your location.

    Everything was good, didn't stay for the full breakfast, but the small one was decent. Clean room, comfy bed & attentive staff
