"The staff are very charming and nice. Don't book this thinking its more than a nice guest house though. The toilet in the restaurant is a squat dunny. There was no coffee at breakfast. They didn't have a spoon to use to eat the noodle soup for breakfast and there really wasn't another choice. The rooms are really very nice though, clean and spacious with incredible amenities and the people are really really fantastic"
