Perfect accommodation to catch your flight in the early morning

No problem (Everything was perfect)

Everything! Clean and confortable stay.

Change with short notice from the hotel but it is understandable given the situation and the communication is clear

Clean room, comfortable bed, perfect location.

Excellent area, close to airport

You get what you pay for. A reasonably comfortable room very close (1km or 10-15 minutes easy and safe walk) to Kaunas airport. In my case this was exactly what was required as our holiday home is over 100 miles from the airport and my flight was at 7am with a 5am check in right slap bang in the middle of a spell of bad winter weather. Travelling to the airport in the early hours of the morning - as I might do in Summer - would be out of the question. Despite being on the side of the hotel that was alongside the busy dual carriageway the room was reasonably quiet. Could hear other guests talking but that wasn't such a big deal for me. The environment outside and inside the hotel felt safe and secure. It was dark, cold and snowing but the streets were quiet, well maintained and well lit. I travelled by regional bus (getting off at the airport and walking from there) but if you were in a car there seems more than adequate free parking available. There looked to be shops and restaurants in the area but I can't vouch for them as I didn't use them - merely noting they are available. I have pictures but don't think they add anything to those already posted by others.

There are absolutely no frills. Not even a staff member in sight. Everything is done through online messaging and key codes. The TV had no English speaking channels. There is free wi-fi but only really of use for general browsing, messaging and checking emails. No tea or coffee in room. There is a shared kitchen where I understand it is available but I never bothered to go and look. Heating was good enough but on a very cold night (around -7 or -8 outside I believe) left a little to be desired. It is a good thing I like a cool room to sleep in. It was 18 in the room according to the thermometer on arrival but it felt colder and even turning up the one radiator only notched it up around one degree. Couldn't get the bathroom radiator to work at all. Shower was adequate except for the use of those horrible shower curtains that wrap themselves around you when you turn the water on. The space is big enough for a proper cubicle and the use of a rail and curtain seemed cheapskate. Bed (singles in my twin bed room) was narrow and featured the rather bizarre idea of having plug sockets in the headboard right above the pillow. Bed did however provide a comfortable nights sleep, once I decoded to plug my phone charger in above the desk rather than near the bed as I usually would. I needed my alarm to wake me from a deep sleep. In the dark it's a bit tricky to find the entrance even with the directions provided. Some better outside lighting wouldn't go amiss.
