An excellent experience! The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and exactly as shown in the photos. Everything was well maintained and had what was necessary to enjoy a pleasant stay. The attention of the host Mr. Samuel and his wife was excellent, always friendly and attentive to everything being fine. Walking about 10 minutes we were in the area of shops, the free tourist tram, the bus station, and the port. I would definitely stay here again and I totally recommend it.

Gladys Yolanda · 10/10

Exceeded expectations, room was really clean and smells good! It also has a small kitchenette and fridge for longer stays and even smaller details like type c power points. Ac was strong. It’s in a calm neighbourhood, a 15 min walk from the bus terminal (bus from the airport is feasible but not for big luggage), I could easily walk to the main restaurant strip even at night. Highly recommend to try them out instead of staying in a resort. Stanley and Sam are friendly and easily approachable
