I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious with two big beds, fresh paint, and nice upgrades. The service from Miss Juliet was exceptional, making this trip truly memorable. While the location felt safe and had a charming, bygone-era vibe, it was a bit too close to the main road. The dining experience was delightful, with good food and a clean kitchen area. Overall, a great value for money.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room was a pleasant surprise with two full beds, the lack of natural light and reliance on solar for hot water were a downside. The service, especially from Mark, David, Carly, Lorraine, Daphne, and Ionie, was top-notch, but the location's mosquito issue was a nuisance. Dining was satisfying with clean kitchen areas, though facilities were a bit basic.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was a pleasant surprise with two full beds, but being close to the main road made it inconvenient to access the outdoor bathroom when there's no sun for hot water. The surroundings were lovely under the shade of small trees or thatched shades.
