Cleanliness
2.5
Clearly negative: one guest reports stained bed sheets and an overall poor room cleanliness on arrival.
Service
9.1
Mixed but largely positive: one guest reported no staff at reception (negative), while another praises the kindness of the owners and staff; the positive, hands-on staff interaction is weighted higher to compensate for other severe room issues.
Location
9.5
Strongly positive: described as calm and ideal, about 50m from the beach and a diving center — an excellent location for guests.
Room Quality
3.5
Negative: multiple room problems reported (no electricity on check-in, electrical tripping when using A/C, having to use a chair to reach the A/C, poor door locks) indicating low room quality and safety concerns.
Amenities
7.4
Mixed: the courtyard/pool and onsite atmosphere are positives, but issues with electricity/A/C and slightly lukewarm water reduce the rating to a moderate level.
Value for Money
7.2
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Positive: one guest explicitly praises the quality of the cuisine.
Overall Experience
9.2
Mixed reviews but weighted toward recommendation: one guest strongly recommends the establishment for its location, ambiance and staff, while another had a very negative experience; overall expectation is positive for many guests but with risk of serious room issues.

I regretted this booking from the moment I walked in to the room I was assigned.
Pros:

It was a negative experience from start to end.

Cons:

No staff at reception. No electricity in room on check in. Then electric tripped out after running A/C. Had to use a chair to reach the A/C unit. Stained bed sheets. Poor locks on doors equals poor security.

Accueil et emplacement idéal
Pros:

L’emplacement au calme à 50m de la plage et d’un centre de plongée… la decoration l’ambiance de la cour autour de la piscine… la gentillesse des propriétaires et des employés… la qualité de la cuisine… et enfin la présence d’un chien berger belge malinois particulièrement gentil et attachant… je recommande cet établissement

Cons:

Eau à peine tiède au meilleur de la journée…toutefois acceptable vu la température ambiante…
