Just had a night here as I'd rushed to book a sale rate then my flight to NCL was cancelled, so decided to stay anyway.

Decent nights sleep and very effective and quiet air con. You could hardly hear any airport noise. The rooftop bar was nice, though the outside area was closed, apparently there was too many flies around and they swarm inside. I do object to paying £3 for a small bottle of soda water though, and then 12.5% service charge on top.

I gave up with the digital key though. No Vodafone or EE signal outside my room and no wifi either. It also took a long time to recognise I was at a lift, so it had started moving before I'd had a chance to press a button.

The lifts are quite annoying though, the light to show your card has been accepted isn't very visible and you have to really press the buttons to get them to work, so I wasn't sure if I hadn't pressed it enough or my card hadn't worked.

Nice hotel though, I'd certainly stay again if I had an early flight.
