Good for an overnighter - would stay longer if food was better.
Pros:

The rooms are decent. Good beds! Good pool and bar. The staff are lovely and very helpful.

Cons:

Breakfast very limited. Nothing left for those that came after me. The bungalow that I booked had a sofa but not 'sofa bed' as advertised. VERY near to the airport (just over the wall), but not so close for transport. I stick to veggie curry when I am here.

Good overnight stop. They arranged transport to the airport which was much appreciated.
Pros:

The hotel was properly air conditioned.

Cons:

They say you can pay by card but you actually can’t. They should send a warning ahead of time.

Passable
Cons:

They don’t accept online payment. Only cash. I was noticed by the day I checked out and I didn’t prepared for a cash for it. It was quite struggling. Besides, the location is not ideal. It is inside a village, it’s hard to drive because of the narrow roads and pumps.
