i found the staff very helpful with directions. the breakfast included fresh fruit and eggs cooked to order. there was a water refill station, so i could easily fill my bottle (it saved me money!).

the bathroom had a small sink with limited space. there was no shower curtain and the whole floor got wet after showering. the air conditioning was quite loud and disrupted my sleep.

The room was spacious and clean. There was a charming balcony with a giant golden Buddha view!

The bathroom needs maintenance. The pipes seemed rusty, and water came out everywhere but not where its needed. the wifi was bad in the room, it was also weak in the common area.
