Great stay! There was a lovely walking trail along the grounds and each room was very clean and spacious. I liked that each room had its own sink, and single bathrooms and showers were very close by. Breakfast was fantastic. Would stay again!

Amazing property, very clean and feels like a 4 star hotel rather than a guest house. They bake their own home made bread for breakfast. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would :)

Son muy pocos baños para tantas personas, siempre estaban sucios, con toallas en el piso, el sanitarios con desechos humanos y papel, siendo tan pocos baños deberían de estarlos limpiando constantemente. El parqueo también es pequeño para tanta gente y nos tocó parquear muy lejos porque estaba muy lleno. El desayuno está bien, tienen varias opciones. El staff de recepción fue amable.
