The property is in a good condition nothing fancy but clean and walking distance to everything. We walk from the jetty and also to the airport. Fabian was informative and helpful. The complementary breakfast is simple but enough to start the day. Internet was slow in our room as we got the last room at the very back but it get better closer to the front desk, so if internet is very important for you, request room closer to the front area. All and all great stay.

Breakfast was great every morning. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. Very good location. Grocery store next building over. Main strip of town a block and a half away. Most area attractions within walking distance. A variety of restaurants to choose from. Just bring cash. The tours and gift shops take a card but restaurants do not.

Liked: Staff & service
So I pretty much was there to sleep, wasn’t available to see what breakfast looked like and was provided a bag “lunch” before my day tour. There were alot of ants or something of smaller size around the room and other little creatures I noticed. The WiFi didn’t work too well, I sat in the lobby which was right next to my room so I’m not sure why it didn’t reach to my room. Staff were helpful and accommodating with late check out. There was some sort of celebration that took place late until maybe 1:30a so if noise is an issue you may want to check about that before booking a stay.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are outdated and with little comforts (for example, two bedside tables but only one lamp, very small bathroom with nowhere to place a wash bag). It’s also not the cleanest: there were spider nets full of dead insects, the shower curtain had mould, there were small ants everywhere. But the staff is friendly and helpful; the cooked breakfast is good (with some egg dishes and local cuisine options). It’s also a 10-min easy walk to the airport so no need for taxi. The sound isolation is poor but we found this to be an issue everywhere. At least this place is in a quiet part of town so the noises will be only from guests, not from the road.

Packed breakfast to be provided if leaving hotel earlier than posted breakfast time. Miscommunication or rather lack of communication regarding breakfast being put in room fridge the previous evening. Nobody conveyed this information.
