                    Very satisfied with my 3 nights stayed at this hotel. This hotel is pretty new. Amenities are in good condition. It just a few walk to the town. Top notch service for a 1* rate hotel. Have big shared kitchen and large private balcony which looks directly to the mountain. I'm impressed. In my opinion, this hotel should be rated at 3* grade instead of just 1*

                    Conveniently located, less than five minute walk to shops and restaurants. Location comes up wrong on Google maps (it is located in the same building as Vision Care). Clean rooms and bathrooms. There is wifi, however, does not always work. Reception is friendly, however not always at the desk. We were able to contact them when needed, did need to call them once as they weren't around. Would recommend this hotel to friends.

                    Location, cleanliness, value for money!

                    I was so surprised by how nice and new this place was! It was also in a really great location; just a few minutes walk from the centre of town, but on a quiet street! The owner is very sweet! He allowed us to check out quite late with no fee which was great. The place is clean, the bathroom is generous and everything is quite modern and new. This place looked at lot nicer than some of the other more expensive places available online, just because other places look old and outdated, especially bathrooms! So if you're looking for a bit of luxury on a budget, this is the place!!

                    Room looks nice and polished, but the hotel staff had left the window in the bathroom open before we arrived. That meant mosquitoes everywhere. I went hunting for them for a few hours, but there were a lot... Asked the hotel for some soap or shampoo or anything. Nope. Asked the hotel for breakfast at 0730, then we got into the argument because he said I said 0830, not 0730. Ok, how about we just work to get some food soon? Stay there if you need to, but there might be better options around.

                    The room is very good. There is only one staff we saw, he is the manager, cook, waiter, in fact everything. The hotel serves a cold breakfast & nothing else, not even a cup of tea.. The closest eating places are half a kilometer away. This becomes a problem in rainy & cold weather. I would not stay here again.

                    There was only one person to serve 5 rooms. There's no one to talk to when there's a need. Though there is a phone in the room it is a mere ornament. Their land line wasn't working to get the directions to the hotel and we were helpless at the first encounter. Food was OK. Does not recommend for a family but may be for couple just put-up. It was quite disturbing as it is situated just by the road.
