The hotel offers very nice and clean rooms that are small but well-equipped and comfortable. The shower and air conditioning work efficiently.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and cool, but they seemed a bit small for a couple like us. The service was a bit of a rollercoaster; some staff were very keen to support guests, while others seemed poorly trained. The location was excellent, close to the airport and centrally located in Male with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The dining was fine, offering a decent breakfast selection. Overall, a good value for the money for a short stopover.
