Too much walking. Need to install travelators. I am 83 years and will not be using that station again. I will opt to fly in/out next time.

It's unexpected that the railway station is so modern. The facilities are perfect;food station, food outlets, toilets, escalator, lifts, seats, information and the air conditioner.
