Convenient location within the GIG airport. Located about 45 minutes by car from main attractions. Basic amenities (toiletries, snacks, dining on site and small fitness center) but perfect for my brief stay. Just note the outlets are 220v so bring a converter.

Clean. Good value. Free shuttle service. Very helpful staff. Useful gymn and steam room.
