Overall, my stay had its ups and downs. The hotel had a great rooftop pool with beautiful views, and the breakfast included some standout dishes. However, the room was smaller than I expected and the air conditioning had a musty smell. The service was friendly but a bit slow, which was frustrating at times.

Breakfast was nice, but the dining options could be improved. Overall, it's acceptable for a brief overnight, but the experience can vary significantly if something goes wrong, as I painfully discovered during my stay.

I had a decent stay at Hotel Jen, perfect for an overnight transition to another atoll. The speedboat transfer from the airport was quick and efficient, taking just about 10 minutes. However, the room was quite small, and unfortunately, I was kept awake by the construction noise outside my window. Overall, it offers good value for an overnight stay but be prepared for some noise issues.

I had high hopes for my stay, but it turned out to be a mixed experience.
