Review by hotel critic
I recently had the opportunity to stay at the Rover, and I must say, it delivers a thoughtful balance between budget and comfort—a valuable find for anyone seeking a decent getaway in the region. The facilities here were quite functional for our group of five adults. The rooms were spacious and equipped with comfortable beds, which is essential after a long day of exploring. I appreciated the air conditioning, particularly since we had some family preferences for cooler sleeping environments. The kitchenette allowed us to prepare our own meals, including some lovely local reef fish. We found the cookware and utensils adequate for our needs. The area was relatively quiet, which was a pleasant surprise, providing a peaceful environment for rest. Although the exterior may seem a tad dated, the interior had been refreshed, and everything, including the linens, was extremely clean. While the Wi-Fi did falter at times, the other amenities more than made up for it. For those traveling with a larger vehicle, the staff were very accommodating, ensuring we had access to ample parking. The Rover is a solid choice for those prioritizing affordability without compromising on basic comforts.
