"Spent two nights here, room was clean, ac worked well and good hot water for taking a shower, the only issue is i was on the ground floor so close to the kitchen, where guests ate and staffed work so it was noisy in the mornings and evenings., but not much you can do about that so maybe request a room upstairs if your a light sleeper :) but overall id stay here again."

"Great little property. Staff is really nice. I mean really nice. Pool was decent. Location is a little secluded and quiet, but you can get to town in less than 10 mins in car. Don't use tuk tuks. It's challenge for them to climb the hills. Not a new facility but its maintained pretty well."

"Was reasonably good, the owner is a very good person,co-operative and courteous. Balcony steel rod should be increased further to a reasonable height for high security reasons as the level at which it is currently placed is not safe for child or adult.Hope suggestion goes down well and is thought of and implented."
