Our view

Who it suits: A late arrival, an early flight or a family that wants a proper hotel with a pool and a shuttle at any hour.
Why we would choose it: It is the closest hotel on the corridor and the shuttle is listed as free and 24 hours.
The compromise: You still wait for a shared shuttle, and the hotel is large and busy.
Worth paying more?: Yes for an early flight or a late arrival. Other hotels cost less for a later flight.

The practical details that matter for one night before or after a flight.
