A few airport reviews from the archives
by F.B.Just behind the lifts in the main lobby there are four 3-seats Comfortable Cushioned Seating without armrests, and without annoying light even before 11pm (if you put one next to the other you could even make a double bed :). I spent one hour looking for the best seats and these definitely are the best (nobody care about you even in the morning). It is beginning of feb, cold outside but not too cold inside the airport (I didn't use my sleeping bag or jacket). Have fun.

I had to sleep there all night because our flight departed very early in the morning and there weren't buses.
At first it was ok, because we were almost alone in the lobby and the place was very quiet. Besides, we slept just next to the police office so we felt very safety for our backpacks. The policemen were very polite and they didn't mind we were sleeping there, in fact they even talked in a low voice trying not to wake us up...
The only problem was the temperature; it was freezing!! it was like trying to sleep out in open air in the Arctic, seriously. I couldn't sleep even a minute 'cause I thought I was gonna die like the people of 'Alive!'.
It was New Year's Eve man, please turn on the heating!
