Clean and everything you need for an overnighter
Due to a cancelled Jetstar flight I had to book this last minute, arrived at midnight and checked out by 8am but the room was so clean, compact and just enough for an overnight stay. Cannot complain about anything, my room was on the freeway side but the noise was minimal

It was good for what you need, private bathroom and enough space just to rest for a night. Powerpoints are quite far from the bed though.

Quite a distance from the airport terminal with no shuttle service. Shower was very tiny and up a step into the shower and toilet recess. Not good for the elderly. Room was comfortable, clean, air/con, bed good. No lift makes the stairs the only option.

It's a basic hotel a very short walk to the airport. The rooms are clean and the staff was friendly. The area around the hotel is a bit run down but it's a 5 min walk from T1 (follow the signs). The best thing about it is it's much cheaper than other choices near the airport.

A bit hard to get to unless you know the walkways. I jumped a few freeway barriers and walked a few embankments to get there. Also confusion between IBIS Style verus IBIS Budget (which I was directed to first)

4/10 Fair

It is a budget stay, so should expect a stay that is decent, but not great. Shower air vent was full of what appeared to be mold and bacteria growth. Electric outlets are nowhere near the bed, you can hear people in others rooms/hallway. No elevator, and it appeared a homeless man was just sat in the lobby when I arrived. Location wise it's not a far walk from the airport and it is a protected walk with 2 street crossings and posted signage. Overall, it's is a budget stay next to the airport for for those with long layovers. I wouldn't expect much from here as it doesn't not advertise itself as anything beyond s place to sleep with a breakfast.
