The hotel is in a quiet street, but within walking distance to the bus station and the main shopping area of Mahebourg. While the architecture is odd in places (part of the appeal), and the street front not particularly appealing, there are great views from the roof terrace and across to Lion Mountain. The rooms are clean, air-conditioned, you have a private shower and loo, free WiFi, and the use of a safe in your room. There are communal self serve tea and coffee facilities, and the fee includes a decent breakfast. The manager is friendly and helpful. Highly recommended for the money.
