This is an older property located smack down in the middle of an expat backpacker area. Not too bad for a budget hotel with Spartan amenities where sleep and shower facilities is all you need.

This hotel is in a great location, down a lane way off the main road. It is an easy walk to the markets and there is always something to look at in the parks across the road. Plenty of good eating places just outside the door. The rooms are not large but they have good air conditioning and TV. The staff is very friendly and helpful, always friendly and attended to any requests quickly and with a smile.

Mmmmmm

We arrived early from a night bus and the hotel offered to let us Check in early on the condition we payed for an extra half a day which we were quoted as $11. We were all so tired we agreed to this. On checkout we were charged $14 and it took a lot for them to budge on this. I had to speak to the elusive manager twice on the phone and she didn't believe we'd been quoted $11. Isn't the customer always right?! Also my friend was charged 4kg for her washing when it actually only weighed 3kg. I wouldn't go so far as to say the hotel was trying to rip us off but they need to sort out their customer service (manager not staff) the security guard was the nicest member we encountered during our stay there. Room was average - quite noisy at night but to be expected. Air con was fab and shower was a good pressure!

Lovely hotel in the perfect location

We stayed here for two nights over New Years and we really enjoyed our stay. The staff were all very friendly and the room was clean and comfortable with free wifi and cable TV. The hotel is located in the backpacker area so there were loads of great restaurants around and all of the main sites are easy to walk to or a short taxi ride away.

Personnel très accueillant, serviable et chaleureu

L'hôtel est très bien situé. Les chambres sont simples et propres. La literie peut être à revoir dans certains cas, mais cela a été signalé. Le personnel est particulièrement attentif aux besoins et attentes des clients. Les conseils pour éviter les pièges à touristes ont été précieux.
