Noisy

Teenage staff, they spend their days tunning the engine of their sport cars in front of the rooms, until late at night, football games in the playground behind until 2 a.m. with croud shouting at every action, room full of mosquitos and antz, broken shower with very low water pressure, antique aircon that almost don't refresh the room, and make far too much noise as well, i'll never go back there...

Not my favorite hotel...

We stayed for just one night and it wasn't exactly comfortable. The hotel is a bit run down, bathroom was falling apart, and nothing nearby besides construction and homes. Had to take a taxi to town for anything, but they had a great taxi driver who would take you there for cheap! Wifi was slow, but AC worked great. For a one night stop, it's just what you pay for.

Nothing exciting, but does the job

We stayed here on our way to our dive location. It is slightly too far to just quickly walk to the center however for 5MR they will organize a small mini-bus to bring you into town and return same thing which is very handy. It is very simple accommodation and before we entered our room one of the ladies very nicely sprayed with bugspray, however as the quality of the building isn't what we europeans are used to there was definitely a big potential for bugs to come through the splits in the door or the open window in the bathroom. Overall it was fine for what it was and the price we paid, but again really only because it was our pitstop before moving to our awesome diving location.

从来没有遇到过如此糟糕的旅馆，远离镇上，往返镇上坐车需要额外支付5马币/单程，房间破旧而肮脏，屋顶还有两个洞，里面塞着纸巾，不知道是不是用来堵老鼠的，卫生间就更加不堪了，一个大桶和一个勺子，莫名其妙，三合板拼成的桌子是唯一的家具，房间后面是一个操场，有人打球到一两点，旅店附近也没有可以吃的，床褥也是脏到可以，简直噩梦！！！

Dårligt vedligeholdt og LARM!

Vi bookede et dobbeltværelse, men det var desværre ikke i nærheden af det forventede. Hotellet er slidt, badeværelset var beskidt uden varmt vand, wifi virkede ikke og der var ikke nogen lagener at sove med. Derudover begyndte naboerne at larme ret voldsomt kl 23-24, og det fortsatte et par timer! Vi fandt et nyt hotel dagen efter! Book ikke dette hotel.
