Love this quiet place

We loved the courtyard and our room walked out to the pool and sitting area. The staff are great they picked us up and dropped us off at the bus station free of charge. Breakfast is included and delicious and the manager speaks great english and is very helpful and knowledgeable.

Liked: Amenities
The staff are very friendly, attentive and doing their best to assist with any needs. We had a good dinner there. In general, the breakfast is sub standard, and nobody seems to really know what is included. The one day out of four where there was a breakfast buffet, it was acceptable.

Disliked: Room comfort
Very friendly staff and good service, helping with laundry, motorental etc. Bikes at your free disposal. Some of the rooms are noisy from the road and hang out area, request a room farther away. Without the rooster from next door waking me up every night at 4am the review would be several grades better.

Un bel hôtel pratique avec seulement 12 chambres. La piscine est très bien et grande, mais nous n’étions pas dans la saison chaude pour en profiter. Les chambres sont propres, mais la propreté des tables et des chaises dans les espaces communs laisse à désirer et sont rarement lavés. L’odeur d’égoûts nauséabonde dans la salle de bain est présente surtout en soirée, mais si on laisse la porte fermée en tout temps c’est mieux. Bon petit déjeuner Nous n’avons pas aimé l’odeur du feu en permanence, j’imagine qu’ils font brûler du bois peut-être pour repousser les moustiques, mais cela sent toujours le brulé .

1泊2日の洞窟ツアーの前後に利用しました。 ツアー後は、服も靴も泥だらけだったので、部屋についているパティオのシャワーで泥が落とせたのは、助かりました。ツアーの後に、プールでカラダを伸ばせたのも良かったです。 スタッフはみな勤勉でプール掃除なども頻繁に行っていました。また、朝一番の電車に乗るため、朝食が取れない私たちに急遽バインミーをつくって持たせてくれるなど、ホスピタリティ溢れる対応をうけました。夕食も3人で5品とビールを頼んで600,000ドンと手頃な価格でした。

La piscine est très jolie . L'hôtel est très beau et ma chambre était grande. Le seule point négatif, c'était l'odeur d'égout dans la salle de bain
