Pros:

Not much to offer. Only went there out if sheer desperation. I had to wait 8 hours for my next flight and needed somewhere to rest. Only spent 4 hours there and went back to airport... Paid for 1 night. Wasn't expecting much. They were the cheapest.

Cons:

The meals were quite expensive compared to other hotels in that area. Not much variety at the buffet.Had to wait almost 35 minutes plus for shuttle bus to take me to hotel.

OK for a quick stay before travelling
Pros:

Small but decent room. The wifi was good. Staff were helpful. Nice to have both soft and firm pillows. Communication via WhatsApp was good, but it only started on the day of arrival.

Cons:

The number of power cuts was absolutely insane. I lost count. Probably between 20 and 30 in 24 hours, and the lifts stop working whenever there is one, which is scary.

The wifi was up and down like a yo-yo.

The staff don't respond to requests via your booking to reserve the shuttle from the airport.

"Room service" involves ordering food by phone (except the phone in my room didn't work, so I had to go to reception), then going to reception to collect it. I ordered a burger and fries, waited about half an hour for them, and when I took the delivery to my room, I discovered it was fish and chips. After travelling all day without eating, I couldn't face reordering and waiting again, so I ate it. It came without cutlery, salt or pepper. Presumably someone else is annoyed they ordered fish and chips and got a burger.

A hotel where you can feel completely at ease, with a friendly staff.
Pros:

The hotel is excellent in terms of spaciousness, ease of use, location, and proximity to the airport; furthermore, the staff are incredibly friendly and truly attentive listeners.

Cons:

The shower water temperature was unstable, and I was startled when it suddenly became very hot. Also, the shower floor felt a bit slippery/slimy, so I felt that some measures might be needed for the flooring in the shower room.
