Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to offer a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and clean but suffered from noise due to their location directly below the restaurant and bar area. The service was exceptional, especially for travelers needing assistance with luggage. The location was convenient with some dining options nearby, although it might not be the best for extended stays. The dining experience was a highlight with mainly local cuisine served in an open and airy restaurant. Overall, a decent choice with some drawbacks to consider.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable but noisy as they were directly below the restaurant and bar area. The single bed was adequate, and having a bathroom sink and a refrigerator in the room was convenient. The location was okay, being in the city but not very close to attractions. The staff were kind and helpful, although they could improve by being more friendly and smiling more often. The dining options were varied and satisfactory, with the added bonus of having breakfast while enjoying a beautiful view of Ambon city. Overall, it was an average stay with some ups and downs.
