- Who it suits
- An early flight on a budget, when you do not need an indoor walk.
- Why we would choose it
- Opposite the North Terminal, and on some dates it costs less than the connected hotels.
- The compromise
- The walk is outdoors, rates vary widely, and some dates showed no room.
- Worth paying more?
- No.
