1. The Hotel has good location, but it is a 25 + years building, the rooms keep a terrible odor -smell, I had to ask to be change because the smell was unbearable, seems it is the air conditioning system, which must be old and with mold, generating that terrible smell in rooms and halls.

5. Yes, there is airplane noise but not terrible and the hotel is situated near the airport so what the heck do you expect? The pool area was nice even though the red, white and blue colors are a little weird.
