    Traditional place with local standards

    • Double Room

    Considering this hotel offers the lowest prices on all of Djerba you can't expect five star amenities. I still think some points should be improved, such as: Water pressure for the hot water was really, really low, more of a trickle. I had a room with three beds, the single bed was OK, the double bed's mattress was so worn, though, that I couldn't have possibly slept on it. It was like a hammock with springs. Also one of the pillows had a very bad smell to it. General cleanliness wasn't great (not horrible either) but the rug in the room was absolutely filthy. It was probably 50 years old and had never been washed ... It is also not a good place for light sleepers. There is quite some noise pollution from the outside and inside and it is directly under the entry lane for the airport. Another problem are the many cats. Some places smell badly of cat urine. Watch out to not leave the door to the room open or the cats will come in!

    Convenient location next to the souq. Shops, restaurants and plenty of cheap taxis just outside the door. Very friendly staff. Cute, traditional building.

    The toilets need to be cleaned a little bit more frequently. The room was a bit claustrophobic, and overall the rooms need to be refurbished, they're very old.

    Location was brilliant. It's right next to the Medina and there's a very good ice cream shop nearby called Djerba Ice. Many restaurants in the neighborhood and the louages stop is around 5 to 6 mins by walking. Staff is friendly too.

    The location is extremely convenient for exploring Homt Souk (and Djerba in general), situated right next to the main market and within walking distance of the louage station. While the rooms are basic and perhaps in need of a lick of paint, they are perfectly comfy, relatively spacious and equipped with plug sockets and a hot shower, making it pretty good value for money at their prices

    The bedroom is very small and the bathroom, toilet and showers are very old. But for this low budget price, we will not complain.

    The location is perfect. Many restaurants, souks for shopping,...everything in the Medina of Houmt Souk. The owner is very friendly and helpful. They arranged a taxi to bring us to the airport.

    There was nothing to like about this property except the location and it would be better operated as a cheap hostel for less discerning guests

    Unfortunately we arrived late at night as we were profoundly dissappointed with the state of the accommdation and facilities. When we were shown to the room the bannister on the stairs was unsafe and the walkway 'decorated' with mens underwear washing. We were initially shown to a small cramped room with no air conditioning until it was realised we had booked the"family" room. This was occupied by 3 single beds and a double bed all of which occupied most of the floor space leaving no room for two suitcases. The toilet facilities were off the walkway outside the room and were absolutely filthy and obviously used by men. They were certainly not suitable for a female. We investigated alternative possibilities but unfortunately it was to late at night and so we were forced to stay that night. My daughter spent most of the night sitting on the stairs because the bed sheets did not look clean. The following morning we arranged alternative accommodation and after considerable argument with the management who wanted payment for the whole booking we paid for the one night and left.

    We had to pay for two rooms as we weren’t married, but they said we can sleep in the same room. This defeats the whole purpose of their goal. We also didn’t get a heads-ups that we will have to pay double even though I entered all the information prior to our stay on booking.com

    Architecture was beautiful.
