The transit hotel is just a 2-minute walk to the check-in counters. This applies for both international and domestic flights. The location made catching my early flight much easier! I was able to sleep a little longer.

The price seemed super expensive to me. It was not really justified. The floor was dirty. Nobody cleaned it, so my feet were dirty after my shower. i think the reception staff do not really care about customers since there is such a volume of them for one night.
