Do not book at any cost
I will not recommend to anyone, very dirty bedsheets, uncomfortable beds, poor air conditioning, no toiletries available not even slippers, no room cleaning, very conjusted space, wifi non-existent, broken furniture, bedsheets have stains on it started itching, MOST IMPORTANT: very unpleasant & rude staff, ruined my whole trip. Hotels.com should remove them from their list

not so satisfied costumer
the stay is equivalent to the price you've paid for, it's kinda cheap. we stayed for 4nights and we got same breakfast everyday. they are very strict regarding breakfast time call. they will not serve food even 5mins late. they dont know how to accomodate costumers and no consideration at all.no room service available. it is okey for transient stay only because they have the cheapest price room rate in the island.

One of my friend recommended this hotel so I selected it. We stayed there for 3 nights. The front office staff( I don't know his name) was very rude and I asked him to send the housekeeping staff for cleaning the room, but during that 3 days not even one day they cleaned the room.

The staff at Hotel Elite Inn were very helpful and spoke good English. We also enjoyed the nice breakfast during our stay. The beach by the hotel was nice but it was a local beach so you would have to swim in your clothing. We were let down to find out that the tourist beach was 1.8km away and located in a construction zone. This affected our stay but may not affect yours.

Loud Guests and nothing special.
Check in made us pay an additional $3 per person for some kind of "Green Tax", which sounds kinda bogus. Otherwise they were pretty nice - the hotel is at the end of the island, but heck, we were only there for one night. Other Chinese tour group guests were really loud in the morning. I wouldn't stay here for a vacation, but it wsa the cheapest available hotel available in Male and we had to stay somewhere as our flight got in late and there were no boats available to take us to our final destination until the morning.

Ideal Short Stay
Rooms are ideal for a short stay prior to transiting to island or airport. Hotel is easily accessible via public bus (5 min walk from nearest bus stop) and a 10 min walk to the main bus stop with buses going directly to the airport. A few food and ammeneties shops located within walking distance from the hotel. The public beach is less than a 5 min walk from the hotel.

AVOID IF YOU CAN
We booked 2 rooms with this hotel. Cleanliness of hotel was okay until at night when we slept on the beds. I began scratching. Thought it was only me so I didnt think much until next morning, my cousins in the other room also said she started scratching a lot. I saw that I had rashes too. So we concluded the beds are quite dirty. It didn't help that when we checked out that day, the manager's wife was around. The power got cut and the staff were busy running around. But she began shouting for him. He didnt respond (he was checking something) and then she got really mad, went up to look for him and scolded him. It was quite an ugly sight which the guests should not witness anyway. Wifi was non-existent too.

Would not recommend for summer holiday
If you are not Muslim then avoid this place. Hotel is placed in Muslim area, you cannot swim in the sea with your swimwear on, cannot kiss your partner/wife/husband. Area around is very dirty, rubbish and skips around. Hotel is clean, but our breakfast we had to eat them by sitting on our bed and on our knees. To get for any trip from this place it is very expensive. I would not be back and unless you stay for non holiday visit, I would not recommend to anyone.

Friendly Bangladesh employees are very helpful.
Location is a bit of a construction zone. Not much around other than a very nearby decent beach. There is no restaurant at the hotel but there is a good restaurant nearby. The Bangladesh staff working at the hotel are very friendly and helpful.
