I had a fantastic stay at the hotel and ended up extending my trip by six days! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, which made my experience really enjoyable. The location, while a bit of a walk to everything, was manageable and the tuk-tuks are quite cheap. However, it's not the most central spot; so keep that in mind if you prefer being right in the middle of the action.
