Traveller Comments....
"While the airport was clean and felt safe, at night I would not be hanging around there." (?)
"TV's constantly blaring out quite sinister-sounding holy chants and feral cats roaming the lounge floor" (gasm3103)
"Facilities within the Transit Area will never be like Singapore's Changi." (J-Class.Bug)
"When I saw "Year of Living Dangerously," I could really identify with the closing scene...." (?)
"I must admit I didn't sleep in this airport, too scared!" (Max Baxter)
Recent Review
I arrived on a flight from Trivandrum, India around 23:00, and I had to take a flight to Jogyakarta at 7:00 am the next morning, so I followed a traveller's advice in India, to sleep on a cafe outside the arrival's gate. He told me that exiting to the arrivals's lobby there was a cafe on the right side and ask to that guy in the cafe if he can let me sleep there on a bench with pillows and he would give that place for sure. So I did that, after ordering something to eat. The guy was really kind and he didn't doubt to let me sleep there during the night (the cafe was open 24h). So I just laid over and he even turned off the light above me!
