Rahuldav variant enne hommikust lendu, shuttle ühendus väga hea
Pros:

Voodid olid mugavad ning lastele mõeldud lahtikäiv diivanvoodi ka enam-vähem. Hommikusöök pigem tagasihoidliku valikuga. Avati kella 6st, mis sobis meile, et enne lendu süüa. Olime ainsad inimesed hommikusöögil ja seega läks väga kiiresti. Hoppa-shuttle buss väljub enamuse päevast iga 15-20min järel ja sõidab üsna kiiresti terminali. Perepilet bussile oli 13gbp.

Cons:

Maja hakkab väsima ja liiga palju ametlike piltidega enam kokku ei lähe (vähemalt väljast poolt), aga üldplaanis oli tuba rahuldav ja puhas. Töötajad paistsid pigem tüdinenud ja tegid miinimumi. Hinna-kvaliteedi suhe on väga paigast ära, aga seal piirkonnas keskmine.
