Location of this hotel is perfect for centre of town, but if you have a room overlooking taxi rank.forget having any sleep, probably ideal for young people, breakfast is just above a continental one, Receptionists are very helpful and polite, hotel clean, shower is just a hand held one, not good for a proper shower, Would recommend for younger people.

We stayed at Hotel Baltum for a week in October. Location is great: the hotel is located near the beach and all the main streets and sights. Rooms were also clean, but little outdated. We barely sleep during the whole week because of the noise that came from the bar street right next to the hotel. So bring earplugs, seriously!... More
