"Stayed here for 2 nights ! The owners are amazing such beautiful people who go out of their way to do whatever you need breakfast is included and is a huge amount of food cooked on the property! If you’re looking for brand new, this is not your place if you’re looking for eclectic with a cool vibe, immersed into local culture this is your place super cheap for what you get ! Rented a scooter White and golden temple is about 25 min drive and a must see blue temple is about 20 min also very cool...
