Very convenient to the airport, really just across the street with a modern look to it. Staff was friendly and professional when a large group of passengers all showed up at once. They were quick to attend to everyone in a timely manner.
The lounge area is modern and comfortable. The dining area and bar is also convenient. Food there was surprisingly decent. The pumpkin soup had a decent flavor, but was obviously reheated with a thin skin formed on the top. The croutons were typical manufactured, from a box but nonetheless tasty. The roasted chicken came with a generous helping of mushroom risotto and was delicious. Unexpectedly pleasant for a late night dinner at an airport hotel. They also have a decent selection of beers and teas.
For the room, it was updated and modern with a frosted gliding door for the bathroom (which seems cool until you have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and it lights up the bedroom). The toilet and shower were separated by frosted glass doors as well which gave it a modern chic look. It was a nice design but more for aesthetics then practicality. The shower had a modern drain, flat floor with a gutter in the far edge with a drain. In theory, it was a nice design, kept the floor flat and continuous, no need to have to step on a drain while showering. It also had a great waterfall shower and let plenty of water down at once. Unfortunately, the shower drain in my room was clogged and the shower began to overfill. There's no edge or lip to contain the water and even with the shower door closed, the water managed to seep out and flood the bathroom and eventually pour out into the room. Again, not a well thought out design.
Nevertheless, the beds were very comfortable with soft sheets, fluffy pillows and fluffy towels that you expect from the high quality hotel. Wifi was also surprisingly fast which was a definitely plus after being on Easter Island with very poor connection.
I would give this place a 4 star, if not for the flooding bathroom, which I'm sure was a rare occurrence. read more
