Our stay was absolutely fantastic! This family-run hotel offered a warm and inviting atmosphere, just a short walk away from a beautiful beach and a great restaurant. The included breakfast was a highlight for us, and we loved that the grocery store was right next door. However, the road from the airport was a bit lengthy, which might not be ideal for everyone. Overall, this place provided great value for money!

We had a wonderful experience at this family-run hotel just an hour and a half from the Liberia airport. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, the rooms were spotless and comfortable, and the breakfast they provided was absolutely delicious! The proximity to the beach and the fantastic restaurant nearby made our stay even more enjoyable. The only slight downside was that the area could get a bit noisy at times, but overall, we found exceptional value for our money.
