The location was very easy to find. The check-in process was simple. I was in my room within minutes of getting off my flight. The facilities were good for a quick rest. I was able to recharge before my next flight.
The check in line was long. I waited for over 30 minutes (it was frustrating). Otherwise, my stay was pleasant.
