It doesn't mention any cost associated with this. A free transit hotel seems too good to be true in this day and age. Am I missing something? If this IS available, does anybody know what the hotel is like (not that I would care tbh) and how far it is from the airport?

What about the lounges at ADD (for a Star Alliance Gold)? Any good? Or is it worth leaving the airport to see some of the city (if I can stay awake). Any other comments or tips about spending 2 x 16hr at ADD? For info, both layovers are daylight - from early morning until late evening.

Thanks in advance.
