No the best!!
This hotel is in the airport terminal, no soundproofing at all so you hear every announcement and have to listen to music from the different eateries in the airport. Dinner and breakfast were dreadful and lukewarm at best. The only good thing I can say about this place is that it’s handy for an early flight!

If you don't need to leave the security area, this is a good choice and the only choice. Not inexpensive but tolerable price. The rooms are nice and they're very clean. The bedding is comfortable. Climate control is good. Toiletries provided. Lighting in the room is provided only by electric lights and there is no natural light which is a bit of a negative, But the lights in the room are good. Tea and coffee provided. You can go with the breakfast option and it is cheaper than buying it. Food is expensive in the airport. Example: a cheese sandwich is $10 and a hamburger is $20.

It's very convenient to stay at this hotel and overall, the facitilites are good and there is decent wifi access. The rooms are not soundproof, however, so the loudspeakers from the departure hall can make it difficult to sleep. There are good attemps with the breakfast buffet and I appreciated the delicous cappucchino.

A shocking experience
We arrived and were booked in, a large notice on the reception counter announcing there was no hot water in the entire hotel. Then we had to return to reception because our key card did not work. Then the toilet seat was no longer attached to the toilet, and the plug in the basin could not open and close. The twin room for 2 was only equipped with towels, cups, glasses for one. So we had to request extras. After reading them the riot act, we were moved to a new room. Same thing. Only equipped for a single person. By the time we got all the mess sorted out, we just went to bed. This hotel is advertised by Ethiopean as being "Ultra Luxurious". I think not.

Friendly, helpful staff. Unfortunately the AC was not working so it was a very hot, uncomfortable night, made worse by the fact there was no hot water in the shower or sink.

Good, but is it really ....?
Although the hotel is wonderfully situated at the departure gates, this is one of only a few plus points. This was my third stay here. There is never the correct amount of linen in the room. Every time i have to contact housekeeping to please bring an extra towel, extra glass, extra this, extra that. Double rooms are meant for double occupancy, surely? The air conditioning in the rooms is a perpetual nightmare. Even after getting someone in to attend to the settings, it never works. The possibilities of this hotel are enormous, they must just be realised.

As a frequent traveller am so happy this hotel exists because I dont have to leave the airport when in transit. However, I had the following issues: 1. We booked a double room and got to the room to find only a setup for one person. 1 towel, 1 water etc. I informed the front desk and never got the towels, I went back and forth only to be met with a rude staff. This individual should not be allowed to deal with guests. You can imagine how irritating this is when one is tired during travel. 2. There is no room information 3. For the price one would expect at least 2 bottles of water per person....we only got 1 bottles for 2 people 4. The staff need more training The hotel is nice but the management must do more to ensure customer service is a priority.
