The hotel is in a very noisy area. With dogs barking on and off during the night. It didn’t help that the windows were closed the noise still came through. Room was small but clean what we needed for the night. We were plagued by children begging in the envions. What would be useful in the information for this hotel was that a 100 MYR cash deposit was required to be paid before getting the room. We did ask to have a late check out but it was refused as the hotel was full. The staff did assist with getting our baggage to the hotel from a nearby office.

We stayed for 2 nights. Staff not friendly, so many rules, don’t do this, don’t do that! Cats in cages in the reception Room OK, small but nice view. Bathroom OK Bed uncomfortable, only one hard pillow The worst thing was however the music from a bar across the bay, really loud and lasted until really late. Wouldn’t recommend

The area around the hotel is dirty and since the rooms are not soundproof, we could hear the band playing till late or close to morning. There were many street beggars mostly very young children. The environment around is quite smelly too.

Hotel room itself was fine - comfortable and clean enough for the price. **The staff at this hotel may be the rudest people we’ve encountered in 5 months of traveling SE Asia. They were dismissive, rude and not helpful. Every time we spoke to them they did not look up from their phones and seemed to be loitering in the lobby most of the time. If you asked for anything, you were met with an eye roll or simply no response. I also found them defrosting frozen chicken in the lobby bathroom sink, hopefully that food was not being served to guests. We were made to feel uncomfortable/upset with every interaction. (This is not the same treatment we encountered at Speedy Divers - the staff there were wonderful!!)

客房還可以

整體感覺還可以 大概是限於飯店規模的關係(只有三十幾間客房) 提供的早餐只有"乏善可陳"可形容 住了5晚,幾乎都是一樣的內容 選擇性極少,只能填飽肚子 跟美味扯不上邊 另外 若是選擇海景房的房客要注意 面向的"龍門客棧"餐廳 每晚都有人歡唱卡拉OK到深夜11:30, 吵死人了!!
