Nice quiet room with comfortable bed. Contains the very basics, bed, TV, sink and mini bathroom (like the one you find on a cruise ship). Staff at the front desk are amazing and so accomodating. Great easy walking distance to the airport terminals. Very convenient and comfortable and clean for one night. But I do think it’s a bit over priced for what you get considering you could spend an extra $60 and get a much bigger and better equiped room across the road.
