    The hotel is very nice for the area. The only thing is that the balcony in the room is very dirty and not well maintained. And we have to pay for basic bathroom amenities such as tooth brush and tooth paste. It is nice that they are trying to be sustainable, but it would be better if they can still offer the basic amenities on request and not at a price.…
