Aurora stop over.

We stayed there for the second time because we had an early flight, this is a good airport accommodation if you leave early or get in late. Room, bed and amenities are comfortable. Foods available but not setting the world on fire. We would stay here again. Literally a 10 minute stroll to the airport.

This property locate near the airport and easily to walk from hotel to the airport and there is the reception at the front counter all time we can check in although we arrived around 1 a.m., but for more convenient the hotel should have the body soap in the shower room and the rug in the restroom because some time the floor is wet.

This is not a destination area but rather a great place to stay if you have an early flight. The rooms are small but functional. The breakfast is good and it is an easy walk to the airport.
