Very nice hotel clean and just beside jetty. Slightly small room. The only thing is bad ia regarding the wifi. Wifi available but basically not internet connection. Mattress a bit thin, not to say very comfortable but able to sleep.

It is better to live in the town than in the suburbs. The B&B in the suburbs is far away and you need to take a taxi. There are flying ants at night, and the calls of many animals in nature will be very noisy when sleeping at night. It is very quiet here in the town, not far from KFC, the streets outside are very clean, and even the public toilets inside are clean. There are more foreigners from Europe and America living here, mainly because it is not expensive! The front desk can't speak Chinese, but they can communicate in simple English. The disadvantage is that the room is small and has no window. It clearly says that there is a window on the room I booked, but they said that the platform wrote it wrong, so they could only give me this one. It doesn't matter, the stay is okay later. The first floor of the second floor is where you eat breakfast, which is also very clean. Two people clean it every day! If next time, I will choose here again!

The guy at the front desk was very nice, but he just had to keep an eye on his things and lock them with a password. My partner stood up and it was too expensive to book a hotel alone. This place saved me... It's very close to Longmen Inn.

This was our first time staying at a hostel, and it truly exceeded my friends' and my expectations. It was incredibly clean and hygienic. As we were a group of four, we were directly assigned a quadruple room, which felt just like being back in our college dorm days. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming; we could truly feel their kindness and warmth. The location was also very convenient, being close to the pier, Gaya Street, and shopping malls. Overall, it was a truly memorable and unique stay!

The bed linen is clean, the hostel itself is clean, the staff is friendly. There is not enough space in the common areas and it would be good to add another shelf and hangers near the beds.

AAnonymous UserThe hotel had some really nice amenities. Everything is keycard locked, even the pods. There were lockers in the rooms, even downstairs. The bathrooms were nice as well because cubicles had both toilet and shower, even a sink. I had breakfast the next day. My only inconvenience was its location. I arrived late and there were no establishments around that was still open except for one small store, where the guy looking after it was also aggressive and creepy. Other than that, safe neighborhood because there were security guards at the nearby establishments.

GGuest UserThe room is very spacious
There is a private balcony, a power strip in the room, and a converter. The shower head in the toilet can be replaced. There is a safe and a clothes drying rack on the balcony.There is a public refrigerator and a laundry room.
And you need a password to enter the hotel, which is very safe
