What a great place to stay. It's only 15 minute walk to the Mahabodhi Temple and Kalachakra Grounds, but in the middle of nature, right on the bank of the beautiful Naranjana River. You can see the Mahabodhi Temple right from the hotel itself, too. We had a great stay. The staff was professional and helped with every need that came up during my 9 day stay. Highly recommended!
1. False advertisement
2. Two hotels different locations and same owner
3. Booked hotel says 4 mins walk from temple but given room in hotel 1 km away on unsafe lonely road
4. Hotel takes booking for one near temple but gives accommodation in the hotel far away
5. Bait and switch
6. Stay away if you care for safety
7. Even workers in the other hotel scared to go home alone after dark
