I was greeted upon arrival and this place has been the best stop on my trip. It's beautiful here. The manager has so many plants that are well taken care of and I really enjoyed the staff and other guests. It's been pleasant and I am definitely coming back again. Do yourself a favor and stay here.

nice interior, and big veranda. Cooking space and bathroom, you can chat with other travelers in the kitchen. Host is very friendly and helpful. I like the palm trees and all the plants around the house. You can hear the motorway but not too loud. Bus stop is opposite the house. You can also walk to the city.

I feel the place was wrongly advertised, I personally didn’t feel safe since I showed up. Regardless, I had to fly home for a family emergency and I was okay with still paying for a couple nights, but was still charged for the full five days of the stay. I understand that they have rules when it comes to cancellation, however this was out of my control, I was just hoping for some more understanding to the situation.

Some traffic noise

This place is kind comfort. But this place is placed beside a busy high way. Some traffic noise. I do not commend this place for someone who is sensitive to noise.
