Extremely convenient location if you are arriving late or departing on an early flight. The hotel is immediately outside the airport, just a few steps away. Reception staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast buffet was fantastic. There are three Metro bus lines that connect to the airport to the city center, and the stop is right outside the hotel, so that was very convenient too.
