Pros:

La chambre est petite mais très fonctionnelle et propre.

Cons:

La salle de bain commune est un peu vétuste mais fonctionne bien et n’est pas salle. Pour le prix c’est très rentable.

Pros:

Confortable bed

Cons:

I had difficulty even finding this place, as there is no clear sign outside. It seems to be a mix between a tourist information desk and a small bar, and that’s where I first met the staff.

The room itself is located just a couple of meters behind the restaurant counter, which is very different from what is shown or described online. There is no inner patio as advertised, and the overall setup feels quite misleading.

It’s also quite noisy, as the windows are very close to the main road, and the door does not close properly, which affects both privacy and comfort.

Breakfast was another issue: I was told it would be available from 8am, but there was no one there until around 9am. When it was served, it was very basic and with no gluten-free options.

Overall, the experience did not match the description and expectations

Great value for an AC room but lady looking after the place unhelpful.
Pros:

Very good value if you want somewhere cheap. Its air-conditioned too. Handy location.

Cons:

Yappy dog next door and the lady in cafe looking after the place not very helpful when I was sick and needed coconuts bringing. She said not available. Also the A/C gadget got stuck and for whole day and night so I couldn't change the temperature. She said i should speak to her boss but I had no idea how to contact her boss. The next day she put me on to the phone to her boss then gave me one from another room. A day too late. Its ok for a short stay especially for your own AC room for that price, but dont ask for anything and you won't be disappointed.

Pros:

The location was perfect, right next to an atm, laundry, convenience store. It is your own private room with AC for the same price you would pay for a dorm bed. Also breakfast is included!! I extended my stay cause I loved the place and the owner is so friendly.

Cons:

Only negative thing I can say is that there’s no grab in Amed but you don’t need it cause everything is in walking distance.

Unique Experience.
Pros:

Good location, private room.

Cons:

First of all the sheets were extremely dirty, on top of that the whole bed was covered in hair. Athough the room was claned 5m prior. Somehow even after trying to get rid of the hair for 20min i kept finding more 2 nights later. After the first night Ants was comming from the ceiling and walls behind the bed, and there was a cockroach nest under the bed with plenty of dead ones. Also woke up to one crawling around. I do think i got unlucky and got the smallest room. After 2 nights with all this i asked for a room change but wasent possible. Left early, no partial refund.

Correcte per estada curta
Pros:

L'habitació i el llit estan be. L'amabilitat del personal i el menjar correcte.

Cons:

L'habitació està a prop de la carretera i se senten les motos i els cotxes. Per una nit està be.
