Proprietà deludente, fase del check-in /check-out deludente con poche informazioni e zero simpatia o voglia di accogliere l'ospite. Le camere sembrano dei ostelli, ragnatelle sui muri, nei angoli. Testiere del letto oscene, sporche. Poltrone rotte, letto rumoroso e cuscini scomodi. Mi hanno assegnato al piano 1 la camera, con auto difronte la camera e zero possibilità di privacy, in quanto la tenda non esiste, solo la tenda oscurante. Nella camera si puoʻ osservare, sia dalla finestra che dalla porta in quanto il visore non è coperto. La base del lavandino di legno, rotto e ammufito. Vorrei complimentarmi con le signore delle pulizie, e la signora della colazione. Gentili e sorridenti. Se la consideri un ostello , o un hotel di 1 stella va bene. La zona è tranquilla, silenziosa, e a soli 25min a piedi dal long term parking che ti permette di prendere il airtrain per tutti i terminal.

Not quite as easy to walk to the little town nearby - hotels on So Airport Blvd are better situated - but this one does have free shuttle to the airport and breakfast and a little bit of fitness equipment, so liked that. Would definitely stay there again

Disappointed
I cannot even explain how disappointed I was unfortunately. I still haven't expressed my concern to the manager at the property. I would hope I can get some kind of refund from them when I calm down. Now would, I feel be an appropriate time to express my concern as to why I haven't received my refund to a hotel In early September that I reported appropriately and in a timely manner. Not to mention I also had to submit documents from my Orthopedic Trauma Surgeon and Team. That's why I had spent money which was for this specific trip was cancelled for meds meaning
