No shuttle

Stayed for one night before returning to United States. Room was large and clean and comfortable. Very long hallways and walk from reception to room. Could be hard for low mobility. Did not find the pub very friendly. They have the monorail to terminal 5 only. I ended up taking an Uber to my terminal.

The Heathrow Pod was brilliant! So much better than trying to walk or get a taxi to go 5 minutes - you would get lynched. The unimpressive thing was pulling back the doona to find a piece of chewing gum ironed into yje undersheet.

The pod transit was efficient and fun. The pathway through the carpark was a bit underwhelming. And the lack or an elevator in the hotel does let you down.
