12 Oct 2024
The setup of the rooms, pool, and common area is nice. Feels very lively. The location is good according to me as it is located in a silent peaceful neighborhood. Coco beach is not too far and it is fantastic. The staff at the hotel was professional and helpful, especially Pendo (Prem). The swimming pool is an additional advantage.

“Superb”
