Reception staff very helpful and friendly. Quick and easy check in. Pool nice to use after a long day. Food and drinks in bar are good value. Walk to airport is about 10 minutes then the monorail - not easy with bags but for price good value. Main downside was the rooms are very very very warm. We stayed post and pre flight and was far to warm to sleep. They provide fan in room but windows open a few CMs and that’s not much good with no A/C. Overall a pleasant stay and would recommend - maybe not in July and August though!!!
