Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests generally appreciated the hotel's convenient location near the port and ferry, as well as the friendly and polite staff who provided good service. However, many guests expressed dissatisfaction with cleanliness, mentioning old and unkept rooms, cockroach infestations, and unpleasant odors. Bed comfort was also a common complaint, with beds described as hard or rigid. Breakfast received mixed reviews, with some guests finding it repetitive or not suitable for international tastes. The bathroom facilities were often noted as needing improvement. Overall, while the location and service were positives, the hotel's maintenance and cleanliness issues significantly impacted guest satisfaction.
