This is a funny place , not a normal hotel for people travelling through, its like staying at a mining camp in dongas, very busy with miners and contractors which means lots of young guys, noise and the " mess " restaurant with camp food and pre prepared lunch. The rooms are cheap and you get what you pay for, lucky if everything works , its clean but the beds are old , linen is clean and the air con works. The food was good for this kind of situation. There should be much better choices in emerald given how busy the town is
