Loved the professionalism and friendliness of the staff from the time we checked to everytime we needed to update our parking card to when we checked out. Made our stay extra special. The room was really comfortable, but the bathroom floor under the washing basin needed a vacuum but nothing major. We tried room service breakfast and it was divine. Thank you Rydge Airport hotel we will see you again
