Hotel Bonne Nuit

Nice rooms. Nice atmosphere

Food not very good.

We were transiting from a liveaboard to the airport but had several hours to wait and were very tired, salty, and hot and bothered so wanted somewhere to wash and relax. Unbelievably there were no rooms available in a variety of places along the strip of Labuan Bajo central (we tried even some really grim places ). We "thought outside of the box" and ended up here. What a fantastic option. The owner/ manager was really friendly and helpful, the room was 2 queen sized beds and absolutely immaculate - everywhere was so clean- and the shower was excellent. We didn't actually stay the night in this little gem of a place., but we would have been more than happy to. It's 100,000IDR (about £4) taxi from the restaurants and port etc of Labuan Bajo, but as we paid £15 for the room it would actually be an option to stay here and just get a taxi down to town if needed. In LB prices are considerably higher and I was thinking we were going to have to pay about £50 for anything with a private bathroom, not a shared dorm room. We are in our late 50's and that sort of travel is many years behind us! The hotel is up an unpaved lane so will get no passing trade, which is probably why it's the price it is. There is apparently a restaurant there, but we didn't eat, however there was a very welcome fridge at reception to buy cold drinks including icy cold beer. There was a nice commual area to sit if desired. The air con worked well. The airport is an easy 5 minute walk once you are back on pavement from the lane- the staff carried our bags down the lane with enthusiasm! There are loads of warangs to eat at on the way between the hotel and airport so although it is out of the way it's got everything there. It is close to the airport so you could hear the planes, but it's not a busy airport and seems to only have day flights. A huge thank you, it was the welcome oasis we needed at an incredibly reasonable price.

Nothing

Friendly staff, comfortable but basic room, delicious meals at the on-site restaurant

The giant millipedes that kept getting into the room

Budget option near airport

Staff was not great and said no to most requests . Bathroom gets flooded with water which is very unhygienic
