Bare minimum
If you have no other means, you can use this hotel. It is enough for crashing between flights, but no more than that. It lacks power outlets near the bed, which forced me to move it closer to one, in order to use my CPAP.
I was clean and the air conditioning worked well.
The bed was enough for sleeping.

The hotel is a standard airport hotel, staff were efficient and professional. My main problem was the hotel shuttle service - which is supposed to run every 5-10 minutes.
I came off a midnight flight, and went the the 24 hour shuttle spot, and waited 40 minutes, then finally went to the travel information counter, which called the hotel and finally 10 min later the shuttle turned up.

The rooms are small with no windows. Very basic furniture that needs upgrading. Walls are thin and noise can be heard from hallways and other rooms.
