Not a great experience for our capital city Airport!
Pros:

The location is great for travellers!

Cons:

The restaurant was cold and uninviting. The food selection was poor , terrible menu of bar snacks and overall average! Expensive for average quality food!
We stayed on the 200 level, the hallway carpet was appalling, filthy and general wear and tear !
Room was okay at least clean !
