Hotel was okay for a quick overnight stay between flights. Was not impressed with being supplied a contact phone number on my confirmation email that was not answered by the lobby staff. Was the same number as listed on their web page. Called the them 8 times to relay our plane delay and late arrival. Never spoke to a real person. Very frustrating.

Clean warm room. Comfortable bed. Some inevitable plane noise but not too disturbing. Bath was a pleasant surprise. Plugs/USB sockets beside bed would have been nice. Only some of the Freeview channels worked..Aircon was tricky to understand.

We stayed at this hotel the night before our flight due to the location and use of the pods. If you are staying here, you need to understand that the doors are solid wood and make lots of loud noise which can wake you up during the night.
