Hyatt Regency Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
Outdated interior, funky smell in one room had to swap the same smell came in the second room the day after. The king beds and sheets were lovely and well stocked minibar. Great feature to offer 24 h check-in and checkout slots. Plenty of free shuttle space. Overall good experience!
