De wijk waar het in zit is nogal ver de heuvel op, je moet een heel deel over aarde wegen met enorme kuilen, je gaat dus niet ‘s avonds nog even ergens naartoe lopen, sowieso met (bolt) taxi. De kamer zelf zijn netjes alhoewel wij wel een lekkende kraan hadden op de bidet, daar hebben we maar een bakje onder gezet. Douche was verder goed. Zwembad ook maar in augustus wel koud. Je kan drie gangen diner krijgen in hotel voor usd 25, naar lokale maatstaven veel geld. Wij bestelden alleen een hoofdgerecht maar kregen toch gewoon drie gangen geserveerd, communicatie is niet het sterkste punt maar dat is wel bij meer plekken zo. Ach TIA zeggen we dan maar. Het hotel regelde iemand die met ons naar de plaatselijke markt mee kon gaan, dat was heel fijn. Prima verblijf gehad hier.

Al hotel le falta actualizacion. Aunque no estaba lleno la noche de nuestra estadia nos asignaron dos habitaciones muy lejos de todo, parece que colindaba con un barrio muy ruidoso, ruido de motos toda la noche. Me querian cobrar mas a la llegada x algun suplemento. Los salva la excelente atencion de su perosnal de cocina y restaurante, se esforzaron por hacer nuestras comidas muy agradables.
