Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Bad experience
- before arrival we tried to contact the hotel several times, but emails were not responded to and the only available phone number was not answered or disconnected; - upon arrival, we were not expected. There was no-one to meet us at the boat; - we had to search for someone in the hotel - it seemed completely deserted; - once we had our luggage brought to the hotel it was unclear who we were and what we booked, and that did not change at least until the next morning; - we were promised a room with a window, but that was not possible; - sheets and towels were worn and full of holes; - there were damp patches on the walls; - there were no other guests and it seemed that this has been the case for some time, possibly months; one boy whispered that "things" have happened, which caused this situation and that he would tell us more about this later (if possible); - several men (locals) were just hanging around and staring at us; quite unpleasant as they did not seem to contribute to any service of the hotel; - after one night we decided to check out, even though we paid 12 nights in advance; - we were urged to explain this (on the phone) to the manager, who spoke to us in a rude manner and even hang up on us while we were still talking; very rude and unprofessional; - we filed a complaint 2 weeks ago with Expedia, who responded immediately and (as could be expected) professionally; a refund however partly relies on the response of the hotel and they still don't respond.

Skapligt nära bikinistranden
Tråkigt nog var sängarna under all kritik man låg på fjädrarna som stack upp man hade inte lagt på någon övermadrass. Om man gjort det hade det gått att sova utan problem. Hade också tråkigt nog beställt halvpension men det är inte att rekomendera kocken viste nog inte vad som menades med de olika rätterna ex. Grekisk sallad innehöll äpple, gurka, tomat samt vinäger och ingen ost . Så var det med de flesta rätter.

Helt OK ställe
Detta guest house gör sitt bästa för att möta sina gästers olika önskemål. Tyvärr blir det inte alltid så bra resultat. Skulle inte betala för halvpension här igen. Vid en 4-rätters middag kom samtliga rätter ut samtidigt! Dessutom är utbudet av rätter mycket begränsat och de västerländska rätter de erbjuder är en besvikelse. Håll er till det Maldiviska köket om ni gillar tonfisk, det fungerar bättre. Detta gäller nog generellt på de lokala öarna. Ett extra plus för att de inte tar ut någon extra avgift när man betalar med kreditkort.

Nice inn with nice food!
I have booked this inn including breakfast. The room is quite big and it is really clean. They welcome us with cold wet towel and really nice apple juice. We also had our lunch there and it taste good. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet. Thanks picnic inn for your hard work.

Budget stay
We hanged room after first night as it was adjacent to reception and just a window between us. Very noisy but was fine after that. Economy accommodation but suited our needs. Staff friendly but a little intrusive at tim3/

Nice, but there was no breakfast in last day!!!
This hotel was good - location is fine.. The same breakfast everyday sometimes make it boring - but food quality was good. Aside note - They took out the breakfast in the last day with no reason. I was embarrassed to ask them. I was up at 09 AM - and it should remain to 09:30 AM.

Maafushi dreams
Stayed 4 nights. The hotel was a Maldivian home. Lots of open air spaces within the hotel. It rained a bit, so this was a nice perk. It didn't feel like being cooped up in a square box room. Staff was attentive and easy to work with. Food was good, especially the curry!!! Nice restaurant around the corner, and the lady next door sells original art that she paints. The snorkel instructor was kind and very helpful. Hassan helped me contact my next stay when the ferry cancelled due to weather. He was great and very helpful. Will definitely stay again.

最初1泊の予定でしたがとても快適でスタッフもフレンドリー、対応もよかったので3泊しました☆ 早朝sunriseを見に行ったら帰りドアが閉まっていて驚きましたが近くの人に電話してもらい開けてもらえました。 早朝出かける時はスタッフに言っておいたほうが良いかもしれません。 次にきたらまた泊まりたいです。 最終日、朝食も無料でつけてくれました。

Maison d hotes tres sympatique les pieds dans le sable blanc. Tres propre . Le Petit dejeuné VARIE TRES PEUT mais bon. Cafe et lait soluble a volonté toute la journée.Le diner buffet est bon et assez simple. Disponible , babyfoot , revues, livres, jeux de societe. 2 ATOUTS : LE PERSONNEL DISPONIBLE ET FAIT LE MAXIMUM POUR VOUS RENDRE UN AGREABLE SEJOUR . LE TARIF DES EXCURSSIONS EST RAISONABLE ( Le bateau pour les excursions ne possede pas une grande partie couverte ,donc chapeau creme et solaire obligatoire) . De nombreuses activite aquatique disponible sur l ile . Ile autentique avec ses commerces, ses mosqués, son ecole ,son marchand de glace, son dispensaire. La plage est assez petite et a l autres extremite (3 minutes a pied). La population est tres avenante, n hesité pas demander de l aide on vous aidera de bon coeur.
