"Very bad"

2.0

Die Lage ist gut.

The bed was horrible. The mosquito net had holes and we couldn’t sleep at all because of all the mosquitos. Also our room (3) didn’t have any glass in in the windows.

"Had a nice time."

6.0

Breakfast was okay. The room was pretty nice... we had a fridge and a big outdoor dining table. The bed was so beautifully decorated with flowers when we arrived and we received refreshing juice upon arrival as well.

AC didn't work.

"Very poor"

2.0

Tom was very friendly and kind. He prepared breakfast on time. I loved the proximity to the beach.

The house is semi-run down. The bed was ok, but the sheets were dirty. The toilet/ bathroom was filthy, with unemptied bin that was full of used condoms, no tissue provided and dirty clothes on top of the water cistern, couldn't even bath in it. The room next to it had a loudly squeaky bed that we could hear the occupants do their adult business.

"Good value for money/ great if you’re a group taking multiple rooms"

8.0

White House is great value for money and Samuel the housekeeper was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. We were positively surprised by the accommodation which is in great location with a beautiful terrace. We even were welcomed with a fresh juice !

The pool is a couple of minutes walk from the hotel and when we were there (May/off season) it did not look very well maintained and had construction going on all around it. We did not sleep exceptionally well without aircon and quite big pillows but it was do able.

"Passable"

5.0

Great location. Proximity to the beach was great. Beautiful upper terrace for relaxation on the property. Quiet and peaceful.

The broken windows in the bedroom resulted in too many mosquitos in the room, interrupting ones quality of sleep. The upper terrace was not kept clean, had water leaking from the tank and overflowing onto the floor. These are small repair works that make a great difference to the guest experience.
