Very nice, but the river that runs beside it is not a river. The room smelled like cat pee in the back part. Had a king size bed with only three flat pillows. Besides that it was great

I slept in the back packers shared room. Unfortunately I work up covered in bites (bed bugs) over my entire body including my head. I informed staff on existing the Hotel /Hostel who was most apologetic. Hopefully they will do a deep clean

It was okay… just for 2 nights

Bed was so-so, not great, very old mattress. Pillows were awful, made me glad I travel with some from home. Gnats in the room the first night all over the two main lights, not so bad the second night. Coffee in the office only is for the birds.. didn’t like that I can’t make coffee in the room. The pool was cool but clean and usable.
