"The pictures are not a true reflection of this property. It has the potential to be a very lovely hotel but it is run down and falling apart. The rooms were dirty especially the bathroom. There wasn't a mosquito net for the bed. Service for breakfast was very slow. The pool looks like it needs a good clean. I couldn't even get into it. "

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing views of fort. Visited there 3 years ago, and it was immaculate then; but could use some maintenance in rooms , didn’t feel the same. Average dinner , but great breakfast. On a brighter note Staff was very attentive as always."
