"I was woken up to a cup of coffee brought to me by Noel, the cleaner!!! I was almost moved to tears and so thankful. " (weltresiende)
"i suggest you take a few cushions of the sofas and walk about 15 meters and go to the prayer room, lie the cushions on the carpet and crank your sleeping bag open. good times and a great night sleep" (AS)
"Imagine lying on a comfy sofa fully outstretched looking up at the under sides of huge potted fig trees, you couldn't’t be in an airport, could you?" (?)

I arrived at Brisbane International Terminal at midnight and had to wait for my flight out until 10AM the next morning. Went to sofas (as I read on your website before)where cleaning staff didn't mind me sitting down although they were cleaning carpets and sofas around me. Had a nice chat with them, one of them told me where to get a coffee (at service station; just walk through the parking lot outside the airport. Now guess what! After a good, uninterrupted sleep on the sofa among the trees(mind you I am only 1.62 short and)someone touched me slightly and I was woken up to a cup of coffee brought to me by Noel, the cleaner!!! I was almost moved to tears and so thankful. I then, went to the very clean showers downstairs in the arrival area where I had a shower and dried myself with the amazing paper towels. I guess, I couldn't have had it better in a hotel only this one was for free! Had a great breakfast then, found all staff very friendly and helpful.
I will certainly do this again at this airport (and I am not a young person!)
