The hotel offers great value for money with its modern and spacious rooms, ideal for a short layover when traveling to other islands. While the service is generally friendly and helpful, I did encounter a bit of a misunderstanding that could have been handled better. The location is convenient, just a short walk to the market and ferry, though the surrounding area isn’t particularly attractive. Dining options are limited and can be quite expensive for what’s offered.
