This isn't a boutique hotel, more of an average guest house at hotel price. We booked the "discounted" ground floor room, which was a large mistake - the air con was so loud that we couldn't sleep, literally like a plane at take off, even with earplugs. There were lots of mozzies around in the bushes outside and no mosquito net. Outside played loud music from 11pm to 3pm, which made it even more impossible to sleep before our early flight. The room design was very odd, with no table/desk or opportunity to sit, and not even anywhere to hang our towels. We could barely move around as two slim ladies with small backpacks! When using the shower, we flooded the entire bathroom without a chance of draining (and we're used to open/Asian style bathrooms). The toilet was leaking water onto the floor when flushing, too.
Check in was a bit odd, the hotel pressured us by email to tell them the exact time of our arrival, but when we arrived (exactly on time), nobody was there and we had to call them. The member of staff that arrived new nothing of our arrival and asked us to pay, even though we pre-paid.
Still, the hotel is in a beautiful corner of the city within easy walk of the bus station and harbour, so I assume rooms upstairs are much better. The lady in charge was so kind to leave us a small breakfast in our room for our early departure, so I can see there seems to be a lot of foresight and attention to detail here, we just seemed to have been unlucky.
