"I booked this hotel for my father who was returning from USA and got an onward domestic flight. I had hesitation about the hotel location and I contacted them and they explained the things clearly and that comforted me. My father is a senior citizen and I was concerned about him getting to the hotel once after claiming his luggage but the hotel staff was helpful. They gave the proper directions and in the morning they also helped him to get to the domestic airline counter. Overall they always picked up my phone and answered my question and I was impressed with the service and convenient location."
