I stayed here overnight before a flight. Great location, worth the trip from the other side of the airport. Beds were comfortable, room very clean and breakfast buffet was outstanding The restaurant options were good but the price was too expensive for the portions the quality poor and service in that one poor. The chicken cashew was about 3/4 if a cup and they charged more for rice. Which was also a tiny amount and was so crispy and stuck together I could barely chew it. We sat about 10 minutes before we we waited on and had to flag someone down to ask for more water.
We did have a fire drill at 7am. Not the hotels fault but thankful we were only outside for a short time so as not to miss our flight. I noticed staff bringing towels to those who came without jackets as it was cool. They took good care of their guests.
Highly recommend the hotel but due to the restaurant in the evening I would only give it a 4 And a half if I could...
