Cons (-) Cleanliness of the room. The hotel in general is very outdated. Most hotels in this price range have seen a makeover by now.

Pros (+) The shuttle from the airport was convenient. The bathroom was renovated.
Cons (-) This is just how business works, but the price was raised three times it's normal rate due to an increased demand from all the canceled flights. The furniture was old and worn as well. Any port in a storm, I guess.

Pros (+) Not much
Cons (-) Old and uncomfortable beds, you could hear people talking loud late at night and they were making like construction noises early in the morning. Then you have to pay for the parking.

Pros (+) The room was clean.
Cons (-) The airport shuffle is bad, we wait at least 40 min. The next door had a party until 5 am, the other next door have sex all night, and the telephone rang 2 times at 5 am. So, if you want to rest, find another place to stay. And only stay from 12 am to 8 am..
