Millinov Boutique Hotel

The room was fairly clean and the bathroom was fine, though this feels more like a guest house than a hotel. Breakfast is another matter, with few choices and little flavor. If you can book the room without breakfast, I think that's a good offer to take.

We were there for three days, and the breakfast buffet changed each day. The room was comfortable and clean, with a small fridge, though the TV had no English-language news. It's in a quiet area away from downtown, and finding transportation when needed was easy. The staff speak only limited English.

The staff are very friendly, though communication is tricky because they don't understand English. It seems to be like that across Gonotalo in general. The breakfast was okay: four local dishes, toast, banana, and coffee or tea. The rooms feel fairly new and are comfortable, but they weren't really clean, with stains on all the fittings and a dirty bathroom. We agreed to housekeeping when asked on the first day, but nothing happened. Some kind of machine also runs all night and makes it noisy.

There's not much parking for cars, and the location is a little tucked away. Still, the ambience feels homey, and I heard it's fairly new in Gorontalo. The room design is good, with a spacious bathroom for its class. TV channels are limited, though I didn't really mind since we were traveling. Breakfast had few choices but tasted good. Still recommended, given the limited options in Gorontalo.
