Short Stay before a flight

We booked a room to use for 8 hours or so before a flight to Singapore. Location is perfect. Just a few steps from Car Hire drop off and the terminal. Fast check in. Very comfortable rooms, with decent shower etc. Hotel also has a very good restaurant on the 6 floor with really impressive views of the airport.
