Wir waren vom Hotel positiv überrascht. Ausgewählt hatten wir die Bleibe wegen der Hafennähe und ein Zimmer mit eigenem Bad gebucht. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Morgens um 6:30 Uhr stand das Frühstücksbuffet bereit. In 5 Minuten ist man zu Fuß am Fähranleger. Unser Zimmer war geräumig und sauber. Vor allem war es in der Nacht ruhig. Bei anderen Hotels hörte man aus der Ferne lautstarke Musik - und das noch am Morgen, als bei uns der Wecker klingelte. Wir haben das Arla sofort für die Rückreise wieder gebucht. ##### Klaus Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Terje 30 Jan 2023 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Vi fikk tildelt et mørkt rom i kjeller uten utsikt. Etter å ha sett rommet bestemte vi oss for å dra til et annet hotell i nærheten. Så vi hadde ikke noen overnattingsmuligheter som egentlig er mer back-packer sted ##### Terje Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lolo 17 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort It is a low cost hostel and well worth the money. Nice big room with a big bathroom and a small balcony. It was clean, but could do with a little renovation. The staff were friendly and spoke good English and they provided me with a bag with some breakfast, since I had to leave before 5 am. I will happily stay there again. ##### Lolo Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Pierre 27 Feb 2017 Liked: Staff & service ##### Pierre ### 8/10 Good #### Pierre 21 Feb 2017 Liked: Staff & service ##### Pierre ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Pontao](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Pontao.h2392163.Hotel-Information) > > [Morabeza Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Morabeza-Hotel.h2023285.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Boavista - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-RIU-Palace-Boavista-All-Inclusive.h24398112.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Llana Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Melia-Llana-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h15954567.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cabo Verde Sal Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hilton-Cabo-Verde-Sal-Resort.h18567232.Hotel-Information) > > [VOI Praia de Chaves Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-VOI-Praia-De-Chaves-Resort.h3018337.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Oasis Salinas Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Oasis-Salinas-Sea.h9462793.Hotel-Information) > > [Murdeira Village Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Murdeira-Village-Resort.h9757219.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Funana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Funana-All-Inclusive.h4813292.Hotel-Information) > > [Doubletree by Hilton Jabal Omar Makkah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mecca-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Makkah-Jabal-Omar.h36772421.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Hotels Sal Vila Verde Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Agua-Hotels-Sal-Vila-Verde-Resort.h9477785.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Dunas Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Melia-Dunas-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h13235305.Hotel-Information) > > [The Jubilee Hotel East- with Spa Facilities](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weymouth-Hotels-The-Richmoor-Hotel.h5162557.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunas beach resort, 2 bed 2bath apt with roof terrace and pool and sea views](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Special-Prices-Apartment-With-Roof-Terrace-On-Dunas-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h19392449.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Santa Maria - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Santa-Maria.h59442625.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Ao Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Villa-Ao-Mar.h12946713.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Croydon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Croydon-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d4247-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [ROBINSON CABO VERDE - Adults only -All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Robinson-Club-Cabo-Verde-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h34316811.Hotel-Information) > > [Halos Casa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Halos-Casa-Resort.h35289018.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Tortuga Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Melia-Tortuga-Beach.h4188426.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Dunas de Sal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Dunas-De-Sal.h2577699.Hotel-Information) > > [VOI Vila do Farol Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-VOI-Vila-Do-Farol-Resort.h2023273.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel LIVVO Budha Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-The-Budha-Beach-Hotel.h16222497.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Cabo Verde - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Cabo-Verde-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h4813296.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Boa Vista Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-Royal-Horizons-Boa-Vista.h3533293.Hotel-Information) ### Cars > [Sportscar Car Hire in Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sportscar-Car-Rentals-In-Malta.d111-tSportscar.Car-Rental-Destination-Class) ### Activities > [Things to do in Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Dublin.d178256.Travel-Guide-Activities)
