"The pictures are not a true reflection of this property. It has the potential to be a very lovely hotel but it is run down and falling apart. The rooms were dirty especially the bathroom. There wasn't a mosquito net for the bed. Service for breakfast was very slow. The pool looks like it needs a good clean. I couldn't even get into it. "

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is absolutely beautiful and the pool provided a lovely cooling break aftwr a long day. Breakfast was incredible. Additionally, the staff was so kind and even let me check out late due to an evening flight. I highly recommend this property."
