I love how cute this property is. My room had a gorgeous mural, and there were other murals around the property. The bathroom was nice with a stone stand-up shower. It was difficult to communicate at times regarding booking excursions, however we overcame the communication issues and they were able to book two excursions for me.

Great location, price point, location, safety and excellent staff with attentive and exemplary service. The room itself was basic (Stars 1-2), no TV/Radio. Areas of concern were the tiles in the bathroom, cracked grout, etc. Just FYI. Don't forget to ask for a bed turnover or change if sheets. Not done or offered. Front office staff are excellent and very friendly/courteous. Keep it up!!! Would come back here again for sure.

The driver Mr Knowledge is a very helpful, honest, kind , intelligent, knowledgeable and very professional and understanding gentleman. He is not only a driver but he also can do amazing touristic tours and can book you activities at prices cheaper than other places. Also I feel very safe with his company. Kitchen staff are very friendly and understanding especially GUGU. The gardener helped to fix the problem with the sink in my bathroom thank you very much. The artist Zian is also a great painter and I think he will have a great future. Finally the receptionist Elton does help a lot when he is in mood and not very busy. Thanks and kindest regards Farid from New Zealand

Apparently there are economy rooms and a Lux rooms this was not advertised on expedia or the lodges website. Our rooms did not have air conditioning and it was 100° every day. There was no TV there was an inch below and above the door that the daylight came through the doors were cracked you'd wake up in the morning it was full of mosquitoes biting you. This place is a dump and very misadvertised. All the windows were bolted shut except for one and it did not have a screen on it the windows it were bolted still had cracks room or the mosquitoes came in. They show pretty pictures on the computer that is not what the real room looks like. I've never stayed anywhere in 56 years of traveling that was as bad as this.
