Very Small, there's not even a duty-free shop inside. I'm surprised they let Romania into the European Union! I'm stuck! It's a terrible country and very expensive.

Great architecture, minimalistic. However, do not recommend to come early as it is very small and there is nothing to do. 🫡 Safe flight
