We stayed for a hospital visit as it was right next door. Nice clean rooms, free continental breakfast and a nice guest lounge with TV, pool table and coffee and tea making facilities. Our flight home was late afternoon but they said we could hang out in the Lounge until we were ready to go.

눉The Balcony of the room we stayed in didn't have a roof so was unusable in poor weather, luckily there was only a light sprinkle of rain so it wasn't really a problem this time around.
