Perfect place to stay pre and post our visit to the eco lodge for wildlife viewing. Comforable room, good food, friendly staff. Loved the location was walkable to town, but far enough out that it was really quiet.

Room was great - we had a junior suite with balcony which overlooked the forrest and the pool. No cushions on sunbeds on balcony but we managed. Great food and lovely staff. Not much to do in local area but would use hotel again as a 1 night stop over to somewhere else.
