Overall ratings
It’s nearly always a bit of a zoo with kids about everywhere. That is because they allow your whole family in on one pass generally so it’s great when travelling with the kids.
The lounge is nice and has a great view of the tarmac. However, every time I’ve been here, the place has been overrun with kids screaming and running around, and oblivious parents on speakerphone skype calls. 5 stars for the lounge space, 0 stars for the atmosphere.
