Review:

The Carlton Hotel is a multi-floored accommodation block on the main road into the capital. It was renovated in 1980 and is more suited to those staying for just a few days.

Mosquitos are very often in the rooms and yard and they don't have mosquito netting over the beds in the guest rooms. No WiFi too!

Water supply can be a problem and you may only be given a bucket of water if the mains supply is shut down. During the daytime the noise outside the bustling street can take some getting used to. Maintenance issues are a problem, and supplies for soap, toilet paper have to be demanded, and count yourself lucky if two of you get two towels.

There have no dining room and the eating area harks back to the 1950s. There is a restaurant nearby though.

Skip this 1-star outfit if you can.
