Great location, good air conditioning and hot water, excellent breakfast, comfortable beds. The only downsides were that their credit card machine was out of order and the excessive mosquitoes in the reception area - both fairly minor issues, Overall, great place and recommend it for a short stay

Et skønt hotel, meget smukt indrettet på fællesarealerne. Værelserne er små men fungerer, medmindre man vil have sit tøj op at hænge. Den mulighed findes ikke. Ac virker upåklageligt og støjer ikke. English breakfast til morgenmad er standard, men andre ønsker imødekommes. Få minutter til havnen og til markedet. Alt i alt en god oplevelse.
