Guest reviews for DOURADA Studios

3 out of 5

Sufficient and affordable

Pros: Price is quite good. Location decent in the sense that tourist area is near but you are living among local people. Basic utilities can be found near
Cons: There is no open reception, the owner(s) can be hard to reach. Room was cleaned only after checking in. Cupboard door was unattached. Bed quite modest
Location: About 500m from beach. Nearest restaurant is in the same block. Fruit market is in the next block. Several Chinese corner shops within a couple blocks
Getting out from the taxi, I was facing a locked door with a small sign above. Clearly this is not a hotel, but an apartment hotel as promised. After knocking for a while, across the street a neighbour directed me to the next building. There I continued to knock on doors and another neighbour finally showed me who the owner was. She let me in and started cleaning. After about an hour the room was ready and that was the last I saw of her (stayed one week). I could find basic stuff (water, sun block etc..) from a Chinese corner shop within 5 min walking distance. There is also fresh fruit sold on the big market right next to the hotel and that building also serves as a good landmark. There are very few tourist around this area, mostly just local people living in the surrounding blocks. It can be quite noisy in the room -- you can hear people talking (shouting) in the streets and the corridor. Earplugs recommended if you want to go to bed early or sleep late. I did not cook, so I can't comment the stove. Water and electricity worked fine. If you just want a place where you can sleep, shower and use the toilet but spend time looking for everything on your own, this can be a good place. This hotel met my expectations, which were quite low to begin with.
