I had a room with a window, but to be honest you didn't really see much of the planes, from my room anyway, a brief glimpse between and over buildings. The end of the corridor view was better. Maybe I was expecting too much. It is trying to be technologically advanced but I think you miss some of this if you book via a 3rd party and you definitely don't get the priority security. And also my room had no USB ports. Apparently some rooms do, some rooms don't. I had to go to reception and pay a deposit to get an adaptor (I had one, but for the county I was going to, not a UK one). The one thing you do have to be sure about at an airport is waking up on time but there were no phones in the rooms so you couldn't get a wake up call, and no way to set an alarm on the TV so having a mobile and keeping it charged is imperative - but no USB ports in the rooms as standard? Why? I was on my own and had pre-checked my larger case, so the room size was ok. But with two of you you would be do-si-do'ing around each other, especially with cases. So it was OK but I think a hotel with a short shuttle transfer are a better value option.
