Great place
Clean and comfortable, perfect location off the boat and into your room, right next to a night market. Wasn’t too noisy either. The room was a little warm as no air con but it does have a fan.

It was a basic fan room. I don't think the blankets are washed. Convenient to the pier and there's food around.
There's no one around after the restaurant closes. I had a short exchange with a drunk man playing loud music who wanted me to go dancing with him, and as a single woman traveling, it would have been nice to have some reinforcement around.

Good service and basic facilities
Good location just a few minutes walking from the pier. Very good services at the reception. Very basic facilities and rooms, for the price is ok. The toilets aren't well kept and no hot water.

Stayed for 1 night. Very friendly and helpful staff. They were incredibly warm and welcoming.
Great food downstairs in the cafe.
Toilets weren't too great and the bathroom could do with an update but nothing too bad.
Room was simple but clean. Great place for a short stay if arriving or departing via ferry. Very close to the port and market. WIFI was fine. Great deal for the price you pay. Would definitely stay again for 1-2 nights.

bucket shower two minutes away from pier
+ best thing in this hotel - its location, and if you choose it for the last night on the island awaiting for the first ferry - it's OK.
+ room was clean and had enough electric plugs for my gadgets.
- my room was with a seaiew. It means windows are open to the noisy street, and even at the night cars and motorbikes are passing by. Closing the window doesn't help much, and it stops the air coming to my room.
- shared shower - bucket style.
- nothing to hang up my clothes but a bamboo ladder.

surprisingly lovely hotel
i was so impressed by this cheap hotel i wasnt expecting much but the room was a good size, soft bed, and the reception was this sweet girl who was so respectful and accommodating! Lots of good wifi, cold showers haha and sometimes the toilet was a bit dirty but i blame that more on the occupants than the staff. perfect for catching the ferry the next day

Good for ferry transfer
This place is perfect if you want to take a ferry early in the morning or come later in the evening. There are few restaurants and street market nearby as well as 7-11.

Good night for a ferry transfer
Air conditioning in the rooms would have been nice. The perfect hotel for those with an overnight ferry connection. Incredibly convenient

coffee island
Nice room above a coffee shop. The receptionist was helpful and spoke some English which helped alot. It was clean and the shared bathroom was kept clean. The are itself is nice and very local. Over parts of the island can be easily accessed by the taxi companies outside, go for the all red ones there alot cheaper. The only drawback is theres a music concert every other night outside and goes on until at least 1am.

what a nightmare
Well for what u pay the actual accommodation is fine. Except if u want to sleep, as its impossible. This is my second night. Its 11.30pm and the music festival is still blaring outside. It's like trying to sleep at Glastonburys main tent. Except its thai music. The Bass, the singing and screaming have been going on for hours. I came here due to the quiet location on the waterfront and by the pier for my follow on morning ferry. The windows are shut and its boiling. This has barely made a difference, I also have earplugs with no let up. I can't even hear a movie with my headphones as its so loud. I am very angry that hotels.com had no mention of this on the website. I wish I could add a video as u would laugh. All rooms face the seafront so no chance to move either. Asked for chemist to get sleeping tablets but its closed. I stupidly assumed it was a one off thing outside. I think its getting louder :(

Nice, but basic
The location was awesome. Right in front of Nathon Pier. The room was basic, very basic. But it was comfy bed. Bathrooms were dirty. Staff were very friendly.

Perfekte Lage, was Kommunikationsmittel zu erreichen und Stadtleben zu beobachten und genießen. Super nettes Personal.
Dagegen Ausstattung und Zustand etwas dürftig. Dafür billig und immer frei zugänglich. Bewohner sind meist junge Menschen, aber sehr ruhig. Etwas Lärm gibt's von der Straße.

Practical stay just off the pier
The location is just off the pier. Nice and friendly staff. Unfortunately due to Covid the whole town is empty, and the hotel seems a little deserted.

Boa relação custo-benefício
Em frente ao Pier e ainda teve uma festa gratuita na Frente!
Os quartos são ótimos, só os banheiros e a entrada da noite que deixam muito a desejar.
