Location is ok. Didn’t walk anywhere, not sure I would have. Room was clean and beautifully decorated. Kitchen basics could have been better but was usable. Bed comfy, pillows soft, grounds nicely decorated, free coffee upon arrival. Breakfast worth every penny. Pool looked very clean.

We appreciated the size of the superior suite as there were 3 of us. The room had what we needed and we appreciated the free parking, easy check in and great breakfast. Unfortunately the rooms are not great with sound as we were all awakened at 5:30am by hammering which went on until 6am. Called the front desk to see if they could stop the disruption but didn’t get a response.

The room was clean, and qiuet. Breakfast was good, had variety of food. Please noted that there is no hotel shuttle to/from the airport. We tried to dropp off the postcard at the hotel, but they said they don't have that service. The hotel name is Suites Cristina apart hotel, not Residence Inn Cristina.
