No value for money, terrible food, small room
Pros:

The staff was well mannered.

Cons:

We paid tariff for a star rated property and got an ordinary lodge. The room we got was too small. Washroom cleanliness could be improved. Water from the basis was running on the floor. Breakfast was terrible. Never select room with breakfast option. Take food from outside. The so called complimentary breakfast did not include tea/cofee and they charged even for that at a rate equal to premium hotels.

Not a good choice to stay. Location also very far and not easy to reach.
Pros:

Just the location. But you can get a good hotel in that location.

Cons:

It’s not a resort. Rooms are not maintained properly. Bathroom were smelling and so small that can’t even take bath properly.
Hot water is only available when power is available and most of the time power is not available.
