The way it was secluded from all of the activity that surrounded the property. Gave us the opportunityto be a part of the surroundings and then disconnect when we wanted to chill.

Aditya

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room provided to us had a broken AC/heater unit. Despite notifying the staff about this issue daily, no action was taken. As a result, both my partner and I fell ill. It wasn’t until much later that we were offered a room change, but by then, we had to extend our stay just to recover. To add insult to injury, we were charged half a day’s rate for merely a 2-hour checkout delay. Completely unacceptable!
