Salmalia's employees showed us the utmost respect and hospitality when we first arrived at the front door. The older gentleman helped move our luggage inside the reception area and brought out refreshing citrusy tea to quench our thirst. The ladies at the front desk were helpful, friendly, and joyful which made our initial impression of the hotel a very positive and memorable one. I had a discrepancy with one of the rooms that I book and they were able to resolved amicably and upgraded one of the rooms at no extra charge. The rooms were nice, clean, and spacious.
The spa services were relaxing and definitely eased the soreness and tiredness of my body. The breakfast buffet was varied enough day-by-day that I didn't mind coming there every morning. The workers were attentive, accommodating, and consistently checking in on us. I was appreciative to their friendliness and openness.
We had a wonderful view of the pool and it looks spectacular at night. An improvement that I would recommend the hotel is to work on sound proofing their rooms. For the days I stayed, there were multiple families with children at the hotel. I could hear their screaming and boisterous tirades despite the doors closed.
All in all, a great hotel tucked away from the main downtown area but close to the smooth, sandy beach of My Khe.
