The two people that were running the place weren’t very friendly and didn’t manage my stay very well. They were acting inappropriate with me personally While I was staying there. I paid one day for two extra days and one of the front desk workers asked me on my last night to pay an extra $60? I might’ve been scammed. They didn’t speak very good English. I read up on Google reviews about the hotel and they had other similar reviews.

not so satisfied costumer

the stay is equivalent to the price you've paid for, it's kinda cheap. we stayed for 4nights and we got same breakfast everyday. they are very strict regarding breakfast time call. they will not serve food even 5mins late. they dont know how to accomodate costumers and no consideration at all.no room service available. it is okey for transient stay only because they have the cheapest price room rate in the island.

絕對不建議住這間旅館

真實環境沒有圖片中的乾淨，一進房間便聞到異味，即是旅館人員立刻噴香氣劑，但混合異味後更難受；雙人床是有兩張單人床拼合在一起，所以如果你一個人睡的話基本上只能睡其中一邊，床單被單及枕頭套都有黑色污跡，而且很多蚊子，整晚都在拍蚊子所以睡不好。早餐不是自助式，由旅館人員當場準備，只有幾塊麵包、煎蛋、香腸、水果、果汁或茶或咖啡。幸好只住了一個晚上否則不能想像。絕對不建議大家嘗試這間旅館。 The real environment was not matching with the photos. It’s old and not clean at all. Stinky smell when you step inside the room. The staff will help you to spray some “perfume”, but it even worse after mixing the stinky smell. Double bed is combined by two single beds, so if you are travelling alone you can only sleep at either side of it as there is the gap in the middle. The bedsheet, duvet sheet and pillow sheet were all dirty with some black stain on each of it. I was killing the mosquitoes all night so could not sleep well at all. The breakfast is not the buffet style but the staff will prepare for you. Just few pieces of bread, sausage, fried egg, fruit and coffee/tea/juice. Luckily that I just stay less 12 hours otherwise I cannot imagine how I can suffer all of these. That’s why I do not recommend anyone to stay here.

Nettes Personal aber die Zimmer sind schrecklich es wird oft gereinigt aber leider nicht gründlich eher oberflächlich. Das Frühstück ist jeden Tag das selbe und die Umgebung des Hotels ist mit Baustellen besetzt. Das Meer liegt zwar eine Minute vom Hotel entfernt ist allerdings kein Touristenstrand da gibt es eher nur einheimische. Ansonsten ist in der Nähe des Hotels nichts für Touristen ein paar Sehenswürdigkeiten gibt es aber der Ort ist nichts wo für man Malediven hält.

The staff at Hotel Elite Inn were very helpful and spoke good English. We also enjoyed the nice breakfast during our stay. The beach by the hotel was nice but it was a local beach so you would have to swim in your clothing. We were let down to find out that the tourist beach was 1.8km away and located in a construction zone. This affected our stay but may not affect yours.
