    - Nice views, nice room, quiet, wonderful staff, delicious breakfasts. - the temp caretaker and his wife were wonderful and delicious breakfasts were provided. -- A more accurate location of the GH needs to be provided - it is on the lower slopes of the town's suburbs; thus, if you don't have a car, it's a very steep and sweaty 30 minute climb to the centre of Kodai and the lake. No taxis or buses nearby, no restaurants nearby either.…
