This is a basic, unpretentious hotel/hostel, right on the main street. The staff were very pleasant and helpful - the cleaners really did their job, and although the place is a bit less than perfect, it is full of personality and very clean. The bed we had was very comfortable, and with the air conditioning on, we had no trouble getting to sleep. Being on the main street, it is rather noisy at the weekend, but that's not the hotel's fault. Anyway, with earplugs in, even as a light sleeper, it was OK.
Our room had a kitchenette, with basic equipment for cooking on three gas rings - but if you are short of a particular implement, the staff will do their best to get it for you.
There are a few restaurants/street stalls nearby, to get cooked food, but the supermarket on the ground floor, and the wonderful fish market/veg market in the town make it easy to cook for yourself, which we did quite a bit.
The hallways of the hotel are sited to catch the cross-breeze, which is great, as you can sit on the front balcony and have a beer as the sun sets. Recommend for students, backpackers and travellers on a tight budget, but not for those who need a pool, room service or luxury getaway.
