“This is by far the best choice in Ruteng”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011 via mobile

This hotel saved us from the hell of Hotel Rima. We had endless hot water showers, a big, super clean room and it was very quiet and peaceful. We got to listen to the nuns chanting and singing during breakfast (though the breakfast won't win any awards). The cost of 190,000 was definitely worth it. They have a check out time of 9am though, which is strange. To find it, it's about 400m past hotel Rima if you continue along the one way road. It's near the Yamaha shop.

“Get thee to a nunnery!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011

Yes -- these are rooms in a convent and probably the newest, cleanest place to stay in Ruteng. Rooms are on the small side, super-clean, with good hot water and water pressure and a big bar of soap in the bathroom. The room had twin beds and a small nightstand.

Breakfast could have been better (banana, rice, nescafe/tea, egg) so you might want to have some granola or nutrition bars with you.

There was no closet and one of the helpers loaned me hangers so I could hang up washing in the bathroom.

I had room #8 and its window looked on a small interior garden. Mass is said at 6am and guests are invited to participate.

Room Tip: The rooms by the front door might be noisy. Room #8 was very quiet.

“Clean and Serene”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2011

Very positive experience. Very clean and ample rooms, serene atmosphere and great leadership by a charismatic Mexican nun.
We thoroughly enjoyed our two day stay there after a tiring tour across Flores.

“Very clean and quiet”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2011

We made a stop-over in Ruteng on our way to Bajawa.
The hotel is new. Sisters are taking good care of it and it is very clean.
We had there our only hot shower in 2 weeks in Flores.
They arranged as well our transport to go Bajawa.
Breakfast was good.

One addtional tip : write down the address and directions before getting to Ruteng as most of the taxi drivers doesnt know the place.
