Convenient after a long flight
The hotel is easily accessible on foot, with baggage straight from the airport. The check-in process is efficient and the room is perfect after a long flight as it has block out curtains and a good air-conditioner in case you're not used to the humidity.

Small Hotel
My timing staying at this hotel was off I was on the bottom floor and the floor above had children running up and down its corridor most of the night. The thumping annoying coming through our room The rooms are vey small however clean Bathroom practical & clean No parking I can't say how enough about how ridiculously small the room is, Maybe for one person they could stay overnight, but with 2 you struggle I made a mistake thinking this was part of the Mecure Hotel we normally stay in Lesson learnt

very enjoyable
We had a very pleasant stay. The hotel is with-in the Mecure resort. Boarding house style but the rooms are new, clean and comfortable. You can use the facilities of the Mecure and the fantastic lagoon pool. The buffet breakfast was very fresh. Great coffee and bar services. It really is hard to believe its part of the airport as its more like a resort in Bali and you hear no planes.

convenient location adjacent to the airport, rooms spotless and well maintained and beautiful pool area. Pool rules are signposted but they are definitely not enforced by either staff or parents so avoid the school holidays if you prefer to relax in and around a pool without dive bombers and rowdy, inconsiderate children.

Convenient and Comfy
We booked in following our return flight as - 1. It got in after midnight and we had a 3hr drive home still to go and 2. By booking a room for at least one night we could park our car in their car park while we were away and not have to pay airport parking fees. Checking in was very quick and pleasant and our room was lovely, comfortable and new. 11am checkout was a bonus since it was around 2pm before we finally got to bed. Only down side was the lack of convenient parking, but wasn't too far away from our room.

Not a quiet environment
The room/bed/facilities were exceptional, where they skimped though made the whole experience unbearable. They have not put door closers on the external doors to the new buildings so every time a customer entered or exited the building you were woken by the sound of the door slamming. This was not an issue with the other patrons, they are entitled to enter and exit their rooms as they wish, it was a issue of obviously cost cutting. when this was reported to staff on departure the response I received was "oh that's unfortunate"

Stayed there as easy of getaway on early flight
Cramped conditions for 2 Nil close parking Roaring fan noise throughout the whole apartment if you chose to turn on the bathroom light Hotel not named as what we had booked through in lastminute.com, led to confusion and delay in finding where we had actually booked ( needed to go to 2 receptions) Hotel reception refused to give me a receipt for business purposes for the stay saying in a triumph of twisted logic that they only got a commission and were somehow not responsible
