Pros:

Les espaces sont agréables, les douches/toilettes bien équipées et spacieuses, les cabines sont relativement confortables, et c'est pratique que tout le monde laisse ses provisions non-consommées, c'est gagnant-gagnant !

Cons:

Dans la cuisine, il n'y a aucune plaque de cuisson, donc aucun moyen de faire cuire des pâtes, du riz, quoi que ce soit... Juste un micro-ondes, et une machine à café.

Buena opción de alojamiento
Pros:

Nos gustó mucho los baños que están muy bien y muy limpios.

Cons:

No nos gustó mucho que las cabinas al ser de plástico duro, hacen ruido en cualquier movimiento en el silencio de la noche. También hay que tener en cuenta que el servicio de los transfer del Hotel Blue Viking al aeropuerto solo son de las 4 de medía noche a las 12 del medio día, a partir de esa hora no funciona el servicio de tranfer al aeropuerto.

Save your money and just stay at the airport. No you won’t sleep there well either, but at least you can have enjoy mone
Pros:

Convenient location close to the airport.
“Complimentary” coffee. Fairly clean.

Cons:

Very noisy sleeping environment. Poor or no sound proofing. Cheap, thin plastic molded pods creaked and popped with the slightest movement. $200 bucks for 1 double bed? Horrible value.
