Living Peace House

Chosen due to the proximity to manado airport . For the money , it’s great .

Don't expect anything beyond a clean room, hot water and a 10-min walk to the airport. If you're arriving late at night and don't know where to go, don't let yourself be taken in by the taxi hounds outside. Simply turn left from the arrivals exit door, walk all the way to the entrance gate of the airport, and then turn right on the first street. Living Peace is about 40-50 meters away from the corner to your right. We were duped into taking a taxi ride for 50k IDR for a 5-minute ride. Rooms are clean. People are ok. It's very convenient for an early morning flight (to Raja Ampat and Moluccas)

Because my friend and I had to check in to our flight at 5:45AM, we chose Living Peace. The 5-10 minute walk to the airport is its main selling point. There isn't much around and the hotel is far from pristinely clean but I slept well. Upon arriving in the room, we reconsidered our choice of staying there (were unsure about cleanliness standards) but decided everything else was too far for such an early departure so we chose to stay. We walked to the airport for dinner, walked back, slept, and walked to the airport in the morning. I did this walk with 25+ kgs of dive gear on my back, so it's pretty close.
