We requested transportation a day before our flight but in morning day of my flight the guy at the reception basically told us no, he stated "Tinesh atkoyum ende" while we had 1 hour left for our flight time, what kind of service was that, I mean he made it sound like we were his personal house guest, as a result we had to take a taxi to the airport. Otherwise, the location was very good. Thank you in general.
