Dirty tiny room, terrible service, great location
Pros:

The property was awful. The room were tiny, expensive, and dirty. Given we paid EUR300++ this is likely the worse value for money hotel. They also forced us to leave at 9am as well while our flight was 1pm.

Cons:

Everything. We only stayed because of the location. If you can avoid it. Please avoid.

Pros:

Extremely convenient, clean and cool design features, spacious.

Cons:

In our room no natural light at all, view to the airport area almost fully blocked by some banner, so basically no light entered to the room - which is fine since we just slept one night.

Good facilities, outrageous price.
Pros:

Clean and modern room.

Cons:

The price is absolutely extortionate. Over 340 euros for a few hours as check-out was at 9.00 and we arrived at 3.00! They extended our stay free of charge till 12.00, which was appreciated.
