Pros (+) Great hotel, great location, great stay. Amazing staff.
Cons (-) The staff at the front desk scheduled us a shuttle knowing our flight departure times and we ended up not being able to board our plane because we were too late. We ended up waiting 5 hours in the airport and each had to pay $200 us dollars to get a new flight. It was our first time flying internationally and we pretty much relied on the advise the hotel staff gaved us.
