everything is fine, very nice, nice hotel, quiet around. The owner is very helpful. Right next to a beautiful waterfall with a nice route through the jungle. As the place is a bit out of the way, the owner offers free bikes and allows you to rent a scooter. also offers transport from/to the port. I recommend it

Super nice and kind owner. The lady who met me by the reception. It was nice to talk with her and she was super friendly. the room was nice. Big window so it’s bright enough during the day and you have AC and windows can be open from the outside And there’s a lot of space chair and table so you can even work with your laptop and the best thing, bathroom is just next to you,and almost 99% just for you. There’s a nice pool nice chill area with books , water refill station, little kitchen and the fridge so it’s basically everything just to settle down for a few days and enjoy your time.

The place is lovely, clean, bright, and homey. It feels really comfortable, the beds are great with plenty of space, and the towels were really soft! Pannita is the perfect host, so sweet and involved, and always makes sure everyone is happy. She makes the perfect atmosphere, especially if you're a solo traveler.

The owners are very friendly and kind. They assisted with everything. A friend had an accident with the scooter and they took care of everything. Laundry service available. Good position. Powerful A/C. They could provide better cloth storage or a mirror in the room in the future, but they just opened a month aho and i think they‘re coming up with that.
