This property is way overpriced and I feel ripped off. The room was barely larger than a jail cell and it's way overdue for a renovation (or better yet a bulldozer!)

It's a basic hotel a very short walk to the airport. The rooms are clean and the staff was friendly. The area around the hotel is a bit run down but it's a 5 min walk from T1 (follow the signs). The best thing about it is it's much cheaper than other choices near the airport.

A bit hard to get to unless you know the walkways. I jumped a few freeway barriers and walked a few embankments to get there. Also confusion between IBIS Style verus IBIS Budget (which I was directed to first)

It is a budget stay, so should expect a stay that is decent, but not great. Shower air vent was full of what appeared to be mold and bacteria growth. Electric outlets are nowhere near the bed, you can hear people in others rooms/hallway. No elevator, and it appeared a homeless man was just sat in the lobby when I arrived. Location wise it's not a far walk from the airport and it is a protected walk with 2 street crossings and posted signage. Overall, it's is a budget stay next to the airport for for those with long layovers. I wouldn't expect much from here as it doesn't not advertise itself as anything beyond s place to sleep with a breakfast.
