Hotel staff were friendly but thats all
The place is run down at best. Given that it is a 3 star hotel we expected basic amenities such as clean towels and tooth brush. The towels were stained and the bed sheets were stained as well. There were no tooth brush provided and they charge USD $2 for one toothbrush. Breakfast was not included and came with a charge of $5 - we opted to eat out inside. Would not recommend this place unless you're really really out of choice - for the price you're paying you're much better off getting a good hotel in Maafushi. We were initially under the idea that speedboats to Maafushi did not run after 6pm. Sigh, if only we had known they run till 10pm! We would not have stopped over at Hulhumale.

Hotel close to the airport
The pick up from the airport was good. 10usd per way. Its a little expensive as you will be sharing the shuttle with many other guest. But for the convenient, it's worth it. The front desk staff spoke very good English and is very professional. Helped us to call our resort on the following day to arrange for our transfer.

Just a night in Male because we landed too late
Simple hotel that did the trick for one night because we landed too late that day to make it to our island. Not related to the hotel, but that bus from the airport to Hulumale sucks and is really confusing and nothing else can go to the airport, taxis don't go there.

Never again
Service minded staff, but that´s where the nice things with this hotel ends. No darkening curtains, AC sounding like a bulldozer, termites everywhere, one soap dispenser (in the shower). Furniture and floor water damaged, a lot of black mold in the bathroom.

This hotel is close to the beach and there are plenty of eating places around. Very close to the bus stop too, makes it easy to transit and travel to and from the airport. Staff are friendly and helpful, and the room was clean.
