Anyone have a recommendation for a convenient hotel near the Jakarta airport (CGK)? We will be looking for something comfortable, clean, safe, not too expensive, for our first night in Indonesia (we arrive from Singapore at 18:05, need to clear immigation, and have a 5 am flight the next morning, so we will primarily be looking for a place to grab a bite for dinnner and get a good (early) night's sleep, and not for nightlife or activities).

Thanks again!
