to get started.

Edward, Australia

The hotel is well kept. Everything is clean and they have comfy beds. They have water dispenser too which helps guests stay hydrated. Staff are pleasant and nice. Very hospitable too.

Rachel, Philippines

Great location if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the main city centre and the busy commercialized beachfront as it was right inbetween all of it. Just had to do a 3min walk through some back streets to get to the beachfront restaurants and shops. It was never too noisy for our group and our family with two kids under 4. Staff were friendly and super kind and accommodating and very helpful with booking tours/activities, etc Thank you for having us.

“Great location if you want to avoid the busy main streets/beachfront”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Super Family Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉The rooms were a bit tight but for the affordable price we paid it served our purpose. Oh and make sure you put the hanging sign on the door for them to clean your room. Usually in any hotel, you would request for them NOT to clean your room, but in this case, you HAVE TO ASK them to clean your room. We forgot the first night so our room was a disaster zone for an extra day. Lol.
눇Great location if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the main city centre and the busy commercialized beachfront as it was right inbetween all of it.
