Goedkoop verblijf maar daar zijn de kamers ook wel naar.
Pros:

Personeel was aardig. Midden in het centrum dus dichtbij Ambon stad. Het heeft een rooftop bar. Het is goedkoop.

Cons:

Kamers zijn niet goed onderhouden en heel klein. Veel roest en bruine randen. Vlekken op de dekens en gordijnen. Enorm gehorig. Je hoort al het verkeer alsof je er naast staat.

Would book again.
Pros:

I had a night flight coming from Kuala Lumpur. Arrived at 9 o’clock at the hotel and the room was already available. So glad that I could take a nap right away.

Easy stay, affordable and clean
Pros:

Nicely located in the center of the city, very accessible and easy to get taxi/ to the harbor

Cons:

The room isolation is pretty bad, I can hear the traffic from the room so then it can be noisy and disturb the sleep

Bruyant
Pros:

La chambre est petite mais propre .
Pas de vue.
Le Rooftop où le petit déjeuner est servi offre une très belle vue .
Le restaurant propose des plats très bons.

Cons:

Très très bruyant à cause de la rue très passante .
Nous avons pris un chauffeur de l’hôtel pour visiter l’île , très sympa mais il ne parlait pas anglais et l’hôtel n’a pas de proposition de tour pour voir les sites principaux .
