I love staying at Naumai mainly for the decor but also the staff are so friendly and helpful from the time you walk on the door until the time you leave they are all just so nice. That was my 3rd stay there and I will definitely be back

A great location, close to the town. Quiet and clean. Just what we needed in the city, and the basic kitchen was a bonus.
