Reviews and Ratings
Upon arrival, I encountered some issues with the room, as the one initially offered had black mold around the shower and basin. The replacement room was identical, leading to some frustration. However, the room itself was spacious and spotless, albeit with a higher additional nightly cost. The service was a mix of helpfulness in providing transportation to main streets and somewhat reluctance during meal selection. The location, while offering a retreat from the bustling city life, posed challenges in securing taxis. The dining experience was average, with slow service and inefficiency in food preparation. The hotel is surrounded by natural beauty and occasional events like weddings and photoshoots.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were surprisingly spacious and comfortable for the price paid, but the presence of black mold in the bathroom was a major turn-off. The service was attentive and helpful, especially in organizing transportation to convenient locations. The location was a bit isolated but could be a peaceful retreat from the busy city life. The dining experience had room for improvement, with slow service being the main issue. Overall, a decent stay with some areas needing attention.

Upon arrival, I was greeted by a room that was not up to standard - black mould in the grouting around the shower and washbasin. When offered an alternative room, to my dismay, it was in a similar condition, leading me to decline it.
