Pensione per dormire molto basic. Ci siamo fermati per dormire qualche ora prima del nostro volo. Personale molto gentile. Il posto é davvero vecchio e mal tenuto. Non lo consiglierei per soggiorni oltre la notte.
The property is located in Male' which is a pro in itself. The staff were friendly when checking in. They didn't do anything extraordinary to make you feel welcome, which is not common for the Maldives. The hotel lobby wall was water damaged and had mold. The smell was foul. On Friday during prayer time, I was locked in the hotel with no way to leave. The main door was locked. When the staff returned they proceeded to put the blame on me as the customer. They weren't even apologetic to the extent that it was said it was hotel policy to lock the customer inside of the hotel on Friday. This could of been solved with a simple apology, or leaving an extra key for the customer; however, they proceeded to ignore me for the rest of the stay. For this reason, its better to stay at another hotel.
We arrived very early in the morning but was still able to check in. This small hotel is conveniently located near the ferry terminal to the airport. Basic but comfortable.

HOTEL DE UMA NOITE
Hotel bem simples, só para quem chega a noite em Male e precisar esperar pelo transporte no dia seguintes as ilhas. Fiquei chateado porque mandei dois email perguntando se eles poderiam providenciar um transfer do aeroporto ao hotel e não obtive resposta. Peguei um taxi mesmo. Mas depois a equipe demonstrou simpatia e até ajudou a levar as malas para o embarque para as ilhas. O café da manhã é simples, mas valeu. Não se pode exigir muito pelo valor que está se pagando. Mas o quarto é simples, com bom colchão, roupas de camas regulares e um potente ar condicionado. Não tem elevador e são quatro andares.

Good stay except I was asked for flight details - I replied via Expedia and by email but didn't receive a reply so I had to get a taxi from airport instead of hotel shuttle.
Awasome services great staff location is good near beach

Check in went well..property itself- a bit of let down as i stayed in Kaani group before and what i have experienced was far from what i thought.. room was good size however bed side table looked like it survived a lot.. one of electric sockets was broken what for me is big health and safety risk.. rail on corridor was broken and when someone walked trying to hold it - it was making massive noise.. breakfast - im used to buffet not portion of food brought to table.. you cant choose breakfast.. you eat what is given..Wi-Fi doesn't work above reception level.. massive let down.. in overall i can give only 2 out of 5 .. good to stay for one night only but not worth the price in my opinion.. and does not matter if its Male or other place.. i think building need a bit of interior refurbishment :(
Smutsiga sängkläder, smutsiga handdukar, trasiga fönster som var tejpade med papp, de hittade inte min bokning, äckliga gamla filtar som täcke, inget varmvatten i duschen, slitet och äckligt
It was ok but old building ,staff was helpful good for a night in male before to morning to atolls

Only accepted as one-night transfer stay.
Majority of hotels in male are not worthy of money. This hotel is relatively low-priced with moderate location to airport ferry..its staff was indeed friendly however, the overall quality of room was never a perfect experience under this price...in short, not a very awful stay if only limited economic options available

Ok for one night
Location, good.
Very quiet. It was nothing like the photos, and very tired.
We only had a night between India and The Maldives, so it was ok for that.
Reception staff were lovely, the cook quite grumpy.
Con
- Wifi only in the lobby.
- There are four floors no elevator and stairs too narrow.
- The room was so dirty seem like blood stains on the mattress.
Pros
- Close to the ferry but you will get lost first before you find the hotel.
