Beautiful view , great access to the Atlantis
Not just a useful mode of transport, but also a good sightseeing tool. Especially the view from the front/rear of the driverless monorail car is nice! Frequency of every 15 minutes means quite a wait however. I found the unlimited pass useful to shuttle around, and also take photos/videos.
