Free internet for all of your devices. There is wired ethernet at the desk, but it seemed to actually be slower. The TV has an HDMI input, so you can watch your favorite movies using your iPad or laptop.
Free breakfast buffet from 6am to 10:30am. It starts to get really crowded after 9. Inbound crews might make this as long as your not delayed too long. They start taking the trays of food away right at 10:30. The custom made omelets are pretty good - ask for a 2 egg omelet or they'll just give you one. The eggs in the buffet line aren't that good, so it's worth the wait.
There is a crew room with a TV and some tea - go to the business center and its the last room on the right after the conference rooms. There is a hot water machine and a microwave (no hot water kettle in the rooms, so if you need hot water, this is the source). Starting the crew party here is fun. You can later migrate outside by the pool if you want. The restaurant will deliver to this room.
We get a 20% discount on food (and bar, too, I think...). The pizzas aren't bad, and are probably the best deal - 30R for a pizza that can serve 2.
The hotel bar is nice, but standard higher prices. If you wanna imbibe more economically, bring your own, or buy a bottle of Stoli on the plane with duty free. You can grab some beers in the airport shopette. They'll be pricier than a store, but less expensive than the hotel bar. A bag of ice or two off of the airplane is a nice touch, since you have to 'room service' order any ice.
There are a couple of restaurants nearby - some that'll pick you up. I've heard that the nearest churrascaria is just average in quality with above average prices. There is a Mexican restaurant near also, that is apparently pretty good.
There is a huge mall nearby with many American style stores and restaurants. There is a shuttle bus that runs between the hotel and the mall 4 times a day. The schedule is at the concierge.
The pool can be used to swim laps (~25m), although the water was pretty chilly. The cabana by the pool has a ping pong table and a pool table. It appears to be a perfect spot for a continued crew party.
There is a tennis court and a basketball court for use, and equipment to sign out.
The gym on the 10th floor is certainly not the best, but if you're creative you can still get a workout in. Best to just to play basketball and swim lap, IMO.
If you owe money at checkout, allow some extra time or pay up or pay up at your convenience a few hours in advance. The counter was swamped with crews checking in and out and it can cause delays.
