Service was average, the sheets weren't great, and the bathroom and shower were subpar.

The room wasn't very clean; we found stains on the towels and bedding. Also, the hallway lights outside didn't turn off until early morning.

The hotel is a bit out of the main town, so it's relatively quiet at night. However, I wouldn't complain if I could have gotten a good night's sleep, but with a giant cockroach, spiders, and a small gecko in the room, that was impossible. Additionally, the curtains didn't block out much light, and the window faced directly onto the corridor, where the lights were on all night.

The room was incredibly spacious and offered excellent value for money. The only drawback is that the area is a bit secluded. Recommended!

All in all, I'd say it offers excellent value for money. Getting a taxi was incredibly easy, with no issues at all. The place is relatively quiet. Cleanliness was just average – not bad, but certainly not exceptional. You might want to consider bringing your own travel bed liner for hygiene.

While it's a little far from the beach, Grab taxis make getting around quite convenient. The hotel itself has a really lovely ambiance.
