i found the overnight stay with week-long car parking provided good value. the airport shuttle stop is conveniently located just outside the hotel entrance. it runs frequently, with a short ten-minute trip to the airport. the recent refurbishment created a modern, comfortable space in the restaurant and bar.

The selection of snacks was limited. Only crisps were available, with no chocolate bars or vending machine present.

Dining

the restaurant offered a breakfast buffet that had great variety. a child could eat free from the kids buffet if an adult ordered a meal. this was a nice cost-saving feature for families.
