Daymaniyat Islands Nature Reserve 3 Stars Hotels

"A clean and comfortable city break-style hotel with an on-site restaurant with delicious chinese/thai cuisine. Mamodou, the restaurant manager is attentive, polite and does everything. I think he might even be a chef! The bedroom had AC and was roomy, clean and comfortable with tea-making facilities, water and mini fridge. Tea/coffee: Inconsistent replenishment. Iron on request but ironing board needs to be replaced. I think access to the boiler was in my room, because I woken by a very loud noise (sounded like a washing machine spin cycle). The noise continued for 30mins. Sami and Dani at Reception were helpful, courteous efficient and knowledgable. The top floor swimming pool is a big plus but could do with rails around the pool, repair the missing tiles on the floor and wall of the pool. Only one short ladder to enter/exit the pool. There is no shallow end. Overall, the hotel is a bit 'tired' and could do with freshening up but comfort, cleanliness, convenience and location make it worth the price. I would recommend to others and turn. "

"Very clean and mostly quiet. Room service can improve. When I requested, instead of coming they asked me to extend my stay although I was already staying another night. "

"First off, I want to highlight that this review is as low as it is because of their service. Absolutely terrible service, treating their customers as a bunch of livestock and animals. We prepaid for this hotel via Hotels.com. They did not offer our prepaid reservation, claiming that the price was too low. This I understand, and I was even willing to pay extra to make up for it. However, it’s how they handled the situation. We had an extra person visiting us, they were going to stay somewhere else but visited us in the room. The front desk called us 3 separate times, asking us how many people we booked and how many people were currently in the room. They finally made us go to the front desk, and then proceeded to say that visitors must leave by 9pm following hotel policy. THIS WAS STATED NOWHERE in the hotel, HOW COULD WE HAVE KNOWN?? They wanted us to pay extra for the visitor in the room, but we insisted that he will leave as soon as possible and ended up not paying. The ridiculous thing is, the original “low” price they claimed is not even that low, since you can get even lower price hotels in the region, with probably better amenities and service. The rooms were old, the lights were dim, and the floors were greasy. The room was disgusting, and there seemed to be cockroach faeces behind the drawers. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS."
