"We needed a place near the airport to rest for a few hours before catching an early flight stress free. This place was great. Very clean and the beds were comfortable. Room had very good darkening shades. And we were surprised how quiet it was considering it is at the airport. We will definitely stay here again when catching an early flight out of Geneva."
