Hotel escondido
El hotel es viejo, da la impresión que no lo han remodelado. La habitación tenía el piso con restos de comida.
La transportación del aeropuerto al hotel tardó mucho

You cannot stay any closer to the Rio airport.
You cannot stay any closer to the airport. The hotel is part of Terminal 1 that was converted to a hotel. It was sufficient but very basic. But fine for an overnight stay with an early flight the next day.
The only caution is that all of the outlets are 220 volt, so I did not use any of them the night I was there.

Clean and comfortable
The room and bathroom was very clean. Bed was comfortable. Slept well before an early morning flight. The hotel is in Terminal 1. It is an easy 10-15 minutes walk to Terminal 2 where all the flights operate from. I believe there is a free shuttle for those who don't want to walk.

The hotel is very convenient for it’s location but is in a deactivated area of the airport, still under renovations so it feels unsafe. There was a lot of noise throughout the night and since the bedroom was quite small and no windows, it felt like a bunker. We also had small flies coming out of the sink when opened the water to wash our hands. The staff is lovely and ready to assist, but installations need renovation.

Hotel is in the airport. It's in Terminal 1 precisely. Currently T1 does not have any flights so the terminal is "dead." Some people cannot take Uber directly to the hotel because the driver says they cannot go to T1. There's a considerable distance to go to T2 which is where the flights are. Fortunately they do have 24-hour free shuttle on the 1st floor.
Since the hotel is in an airport terminal, there are NO windows. The floor is a bit unclean. But overall it's been a nice experience.
