Maldives Transit Hotel Recommendation, Great Experience!

Maldives Transit Hotel Recommendation, Great Experience! Hotel Name: Ocean Grand (Hulhumale Ocean Grand Hotel) Because the arrival time in Male was too late to catch the flight to the island on the same day, I checked the guides in advance and saw that everyone online said that the hotels in Male are expensive and not good. I was very afraid of stepping on a mine, so after many comparisons, I booked this hotel. Hotel Environment: If you want to stay clean in Male, there are basically no hotels under 600 to choose from. Even a hotel that costs more than a thousand a night is at the level of a three-star hotel in China. I sincerely suggest that everyone should not be greedy for cheapness. Choose a hotel where you can rest well, so you will have the energy to play on the island the next day. This hotel has a very strong lemongrass smell when you enter. The hotel as a whole is just one building with a total of 7 floors (like a self-built house in China). The rooms are not big but clean and tidy. Breakfast: Basically, all online bookings include breakfast packages. The 7th floor is the breakfast room, with bread and vegetables, all in a buffet style (the variety and quantity are similar to Atour). It should be noted that drinks and egg preparations are specially asked by the waiter and made for you on the spot. Airport Transfer: From the airport pick-up in Male to the hotel, and the next day's transfer to the domestic flight are all included. You can write an email to the hotel in advance to confirm your flight number and the name of the hotel you are going to. The staff will hold a sign to pick you up at the airport (if you can't find them, you can go to the information desk to call, try not to pay attention to strangers who take the initiative to talk to you). The transfer for the next day will also be confirmed with you when you check in. Overall, the experience is very worry-free. Service Attitude: The service attitude of the staff is very good. They help with luggage during pick-up and drop-off, provide welcome drinks and towels to wipe your hands. Check-in is also one-on-one service. The hotel staff greet you when they see you, and they respond to emails quickly. Their English has a bit of an accent, but basic communication is not a problem.
