Keep in mind its only a 6 hour stay. Rooms are tight and the AC doesnt seem to be working well. There was a bottleof cleaning spray sitting at our room table, whole room smelled like chemical ( at least it was clean) overall not that great of a spot but if you just need to take a nap and shower in between flights..

Welcome break from a 8 hour flight. I booked it to cover a 8 hour lay over for my next flight. Money well spent as I had a sleep on a bed rather than a bench in the airport. The hotel was next to the departure gate .. so bonus.. ps the hotel provides the essential basics, that I need to break into my suitcase

The hotel room itself was amazing. However, I was waiting for my room for 1.5hrs after checkin along with 50+ people. Maybe this was unavoidable, but NO EXPLANATION was given. With this amount of time AT 1AM I could have stayed at a hotel outside the airport with equal quality and a MUCH LOWER PRICE.
