Fit for purpose but you wouldn’t want to be staying longer than a night
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Nowhere to have luggage open except on the floor - I have back problems so this was inconvenient

It was convenient, reduced the stress of getting to the airport on time, the breakfast was great.
Pros:

The location and the breakfast was very good, the coffee especially. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was nice.

Cons:

The room was a lot smaller than I anticipated. I was surprised that there was not a television or bar fridge. Of course there was no window because the room was inside the airport, but unfortunately it felt a little claustrophobic. I asked for a wake up call at 6:00am but received one at 6:15am, not by telephone but by knocking on the door.

A Plus for Location
Pros:

The convenience of not having to leave the airport building. The room was compact and fine for 1 person. Toiletries supplied, inc toothbrush saved having to get out my own.

Cons:

I found the air very drying ... didnt help my skin or sinuses.

pleasant and met my expectation for a single night stop over
Pros:

no breakfast I was on a 6:15 flight , tea/coffee stations were very useful, Man on reception helped me to use the toilet in an emergency, Although my single room was small it certainly done its job for a single night stop over. early morning wake up call at 3:45 was right on the dot

Cons:

Shower although worked , the head was not able to be fixed as normal therefore only abled to used as hand held

Could have been better
Pros:

Location, convenience, hot water

Cons:

Rude receptionist, air conditioning too cold to permit me to sleep (only told as I was leaving that it could be adjusted by reception - signage suggested otherwise), shower broken (could only use as hand held, not hands free)

Convenient option inside international terminal
Pros:

Located near international arrivals area and a short walk from places to eat. Relatively quiet rooms although you could hear other doors opening and closing through the night. Small but functional rooms with a shared beverage station and a lounge/cafe if wanted. Good lighting including near bed. Staff were helpful and responded quickly to requests.

Cons:

A place to sit and/or put belongings would be great in room. Room was cold with central air but staff could adjust fan speed if asked. Price was very high for what was offered, compared to its competitor.

After a late night landing this was perfect
Pros:

How convenient when you get off a late flight or onto an early morning flight. It’s compact but at the same time you can fit lots of bags in there. Nice big bathroom tv very adequate. We didn’t have to set an alarm as we had all day to get home. The room was dark with no noise so we slept till 11 the next morning. Helping us with our jet lag.

Cons:

Nothing really. It was what we expected
