Convenient Transit Rest

The location is convenient near the gates. I got some rest and a shower and reached the gate on time for boarding. The bed offered great comfort (i slept like a baby). Bathroom facilities are very functional, especially the shower. The hotel's proximity allows a quick walk to nearby restaurants for meals.

The sound insulation could be improved, as I could hear noises from the hallway.
