The rooms are ok, I have been upgraded to a Jnr Suite every time but the tvs are very old. Hallways are very tatty but the lounge is quite good. Im usually only staying for 1 or two nights and it is one of the closest to the airport. If you are plat breakfast is in the lounge but a couple of times I have booked a breakfast package that is a flexible rate and gives breakfast in the restaurant. As much as I wouldnt mind staying at some of the other properties my cheapness gets the better of me. I dont mind the Aloft either except its about a 75 min ride to the airport against 25min to great wall.
