This is meant to be a 4 star hotel and it probably was a few decades ago but now it is dated, tired and run down. The room (apparently a superior king room) was dark, small and stuffy. The air cond did not work properly so is was hot too! The bathroom was especially tired and smelled awful and the toilet did not flush properly. Thankfully we were only there one night between flights.
