I like this airport, I have slept there a number of times, usually arriving by train at ~2am, and taking an early morning flight. I am not sure where those leather benches are, I only know a few benches, in-between the terminals, but I always sleep on the floor inside my own sleeping bag, nobody bothering, usually under stairs or just on the wooden floor upstairs. It's clean and cozy, though have to walk far to the toilets. In the old days, security was not allowing to sleep, but it seems this has changed. I also heard a friend happily telling about the kids area (some 5 years ago). As far as I know, WiFi is not free at all.

There were no food, drinks or anything. The showers were closed. Luckily the toilets were some what clean. It was freezing cold. It was more comfortable to sleep on the floor than on the benches. The blankets and pillows came after 9 hours waiting time when it was time to wake up and stand in line to get a flight out of the airport. All night through annoying messages were announced over the speakers, like "the airport is closed because of bad weather", like we didn't know. It was a really bad experience, and I don't recommend this airport in the wintertime. It has a history of bad weather conditions, and to handle it bad..."
