Very bad experience
Pros:

Dislike

Cons:

"Do not stay here! I strongly recommend avoiding this place completely. 👎
The room I was given was extremely small, dirty, and overall terrible. Worse, it looked completely different from the pictures shown when I booked it.
To make matters worse, they advertised free Wi-Fi, but upon arrival, I was told it wasn't available because 'someone else was using it'—a ridiculous excuse. I am incredibly dissatisfied with this experience. Save your money and never stay here!"

Boasted of “RESORT”. No. Just 2 rooms only at the side of a house. The staff were friendly. But the advertising is not c
Pros:

The large rooms

Cons:

The carpets were smelling of urine. Cigarettes marks. Bathroom had no paper and the commode was not clean. Ants everywhere. It is not a “RESORT”

The only thing is its a little hard to get to the hotel because there’s only one way to get there, and google maps doesn’t know it yet.

A bit of a walk from town, very bright with white curtains so it's never dark for sleeping, air con wasn't cold, horrible hard pillows, holes in windows in the bathroom so mosquito's got in abd bit us alive.

Big expectations followed by big disappointment
Pros:

The pictures on Booking.com are really nice and the room looks like it at first sight, when you step into it.

Cons:

There was a very bad smell in the room. The bed and pillow covers and towels had some unknown stains on them.
