The rest is worth the price
"So the time limited aspect is a downside. Our flight meant that we checked in at approx. 2am and checkout was 08.00 at latest, but the much needed rest was priceless. Service was pleasant. For fellow people with tiny bladders, you have to walk approx. 3 minutes to use the airport toilets."
