Safe place to stay before flights”

It's only a $20 taxi ride to the airport from here, and the front eesk can set it up. The staff at front desk, and everywhere, were super friendly and accommodating. The food menu is pretty intense with everything from beef carpaccio to extra thick pork chops to pasta to pizza. And of course, lots to drink. There are local ladies who hang out at the bar and some of them are great for chatting and sharing a meal and drink and laughs. Other ladies are only good at one thing... Overall, I would stay again and recommend.
