A beautifully carved wooden boat and an attractive pergola distinguish the outside of this otherwise ordinary hotel. The air-con is somewhat under-functioning and the mosquitoes take revenge at night, but the friendly staff ensure guests are up in time for the early-morning ferry and are helpful in arranging transport around town. Rooms are clean and comfortable if cramped.
