Anyone have first-hand experience? Location looks awesome for early flight when you cannot get there from interstate. However reviews is very mixed bag - basically either 5 star mainly for convenience or 1 star for room size and overall facility. Any comments?

If your expectations are that of a standard hotel, then you will be disappointed. The rooms are small and basic when I was there, I found them unbearably hot with no way to adjust the temp. You're not going to want to spend much time in their if you're not sleeping. For my purposes I arrived late at night from interstate for a very early flight. Paying extra for the Rydges would have been a waste. The Aerotel is just not something that you can easily grade. For specific circumstances its 5 stars for the convivence, if you don't need that convivence there are several better options very close by.

Thanks for opinion. I imagine pretty much what you described except of inability to adjust temperature and booked it pretty much for the same reason - arrive later from interstate for very early flight. There are plenty of places around, but all require to hire taxi and this is extra time and extra money.
