different options friendly staff bad road warm temperatures
The breakfast was tasty. I liked the different options offered. The staff gave great tips about what to do. It was nice they offered to take us to the train station when we checked out.
There werent a fridge or air conditioning available. The absence of a refrigerator were bothersome. I wanted to keep drinks cold with such warm temperatures. The road to the place is very bad.

Relaxing Stay Tucked Away

tuk-tuk service delicious avocado toast friendly labrador natural setting
The staff picked us up with a tuk-tuk because the bungalows are up the hill, a short distance from the city center and train station. Breakfast included delicious avocado toast. It was a nice start to the day. Loola, the Labrador, kept us company, I appreciated this warm touch. The setting felt very natural away from busy streets.
It was difficult to find the hotel.
