The location is a little ways away from the “main attractions” but definitely within walking distance. Also the water taxi station is right there which takes you everywhere you need. I loved staying on that side of town away from the crowds of people! There is no A/C but the windows open to help keep it a little cooler and the fan helps a little. Prepare to wake up early, with the windows open the light of the sun and the sound of the hustle from the workers comes right in. Would definitely stay here again, and would definitely recommend! Only trouble we had was with check-in, it was hard to find the “meeting place.” It was a short ways from the bus station, and even with the help of asking locals where to find the particular location we had a pretty difficult time.
