Pros:

Mooi aangelegd, middenin de rijstvelden. Nieuwe accommodatie en ziet er vrij luxe uit. Vriendelijke medewerkers. Fijne, gemeenschappelijke zitgedeelten met uitzicht!

Cons:

Ze zijn nog aan het bouwen, waardoor je wat geluidsoverlast ervaart. Het zwembad ziet er prachtig uit maar nodigt niet echt uit omdat er maar een stoel bij staat. Kamers waren vrij donker. Ontbijt was nog niet beschikbaar. Geen klamboe. En we troffen een gigantische spin aan in de badkamer.

Hotel in a lovely location but….
Pros:

The staff were great. Doing everything to make the stay comfortable. There was a pool and the view was stunning. The room was large and quite pleasant looking.

Cons:

There were cockroaches!! The hotel is in the middle of the rice field. Yes it looked stunning but the pay off was huge cockroaches. Staff came every time we saw one and sprayed, cleaned but there was always more. Also, the bathroom didn’t have any shower gel or shampoo. The room was made up nicely but the floor was dirty ☹️ would I stay here again - with roaches - no way!

Отель приятно удивил. Свежие просторные комнаты. Хороший санузел с горячей водой. Классная зона отдыха на втором этаже с
Pros:

Тихое место, красиво вокруг, просторная комната, заботливый персонал, общее место на втором этаже, где можно посидеть и провести время.

Cons:

Ну только одеяло 😁 простыня вместо нормального одеяла - это не удобно. Но тут на вкус и цвет))

Super nettes Personal reißt es raus
Pros:

Super nettes Personal - die Jungs machen echt den Unterschied. Preis-Leistung past absolut.

Cons:

Leider ist während unseres Aufenthalts die Küche renoviert worden, ohne dass es dazu vorab einen Hinweis gab. Daher mussten wir denn abends essen gehen bzw. liefern lassen.
Leider gab es kein warmes Wasser: Das Hotel verfügt über eine Dachanlage - ist die leer, muss man mit dem Lauwarmen Wasser aus der Leitung zurechtkommen. War aber keine große Einschränkung.

Eene mooie opportuniteit
Pros:

Het is een in allre rust geelgen hotel, tussen de rijstvelden en aan het meer. Het personeel is enorm behulpzaam! Er is een leuke easy-on going sfeer. Een safari is perfect geregeld.
