Transtell Suites & Apartments

The room size was okay, but I had to switch rooms about 5 times. One had a clogged bathroom drain, another had a shower that didn’t work, and I also ran into AC problems: not cooling, making noise, and leaking water. The walls could use fresh paint, and there was no internet. At least the compound is spacious, so parking’s easy. I spent most of my time at the bar, which has an outdoor area and a lounge, plus table tennis and snooker. There’s a gym too, though I didn’t use it.

The rooms were neat, the beds and bathrooms clean, and the towels smelled great. I do think they should provide flip-flops for all guests. The pool has a creative shape, and families or groups can also rent apartments and cook for themselves. Old English Bar & Grill is the outdoor bar, with plenty to drink, including fresh, good palm wine. The entrance is wheelchair accessible, though there’s no accessibility sign or parking.

What a mess of a place. The rooms smelled like trash and were poorly lit. The receptionist handed out rooms without towels, and even by 8pm there still weren’t any, despite checkout being from 12 to 3pm. Terrible stay.

The stagnant water right in front of the hotel needs urgent attention. They should direct it into the drainage, build new drains, clear the old clogged ones, and finish the road leading up to the place. It’s only a few metres away. Sorting this out could help bring in more guests.
