    I had a great stay at this hotel. the value for money was excellent, with affordable prices that didn't break the bank. Secondly, the attention to detail was impressive, as every room was well-maintained and had all the required facilities, including a TV. Additionally, the location was convenient, as it was close to most sites of interest and offered nice views from the rooms with balconies. Lastly, the breakfast included in the stay was a wonderful start to the day, with a variety of options to choose from.

    All aspects of my stay were satisfactory.

    The location was perfect - walking distance to ferry dock, harbor, and fish market. The owner and staff made me feel like family. Daily breakfast with cooked-to-order eggs was a nice touch. The room was spacious with a balcony and ocean view. Complimentary pick-up and helpful advice on transportation saved money.

    All was good.

    The breakfast offered fresh and tasty fruit and delicious eggs. the location was just a short walk from the heart of the town but incredibly quiet at night. the hotel offered a complimentary airport transfer, which was a great convenience.

    The bathroom was a bit run down and could use some renovation. we found the beds to be uncomfortably firm.

    This hotel offers great value for money, with affordable prices for the level of service provided. The attention to detail is commendable, with rooms well-equipped and with all the required facilities, including a TV and a balcony. The location, although in a not so nice neighborhood, is actually quite convenient as it is close to the local bus station and most sites of interest.

    Everything was satisfactory and met my expectations.

    The hotel provided a complimentary pick-up service from the airport, which was a nice touch. The staff were helpful and advised me on cheaper transportation options, saving me money. Location was excellent: within walking distance to all major attractions.

    The location of this budget hotel is convenient for those looking to stay close to the Dala Dala bus terminal, although it is not in the nicest of neighborhoods. Despite this, it is walking distance from almost everything you need to see and is conveniently located by the ferry. the private room is small but functional and comes with an en suite bathroom. the staff are friendly and the breakfast is satisfactory.

    The outside noise can be disturbing, and the lights from the street shine into the room, making it difficult to sleep at night.

    During my Christmas stay on this island, I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel's hospitality. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. Plus, the rooftop was the perfect spot to enjoy the views of the city and the sea.

    I must admit that the WiFi was not very strong, which made it difficult to connect to the internet at times. Plus, the area around the hotel could be quite noisy, which made it challenging to sleep early in the morning.
