Amazing Cuisine

During my stay, I had the opportunity to indulge in their Texas burger, which was incredibly tasty. The ambiance of the dining area added to the experience, making it perfect for a relaxed meal. The meals are not only delicious but also reasonably priced, making it a great option for dining out!

Perfect for Kids

The kids' play area was a hit with my family! There were trampolines, mini-trains, and a swimming pool that were all perfect for a fun-filled day. It’s a fantastic place for children to enjoy themselves while parents can relax and unwind in the spacious sitting areas.

The hotel is located away from the main thoroughfares, providing a safe environment, although there is an issue with too many mosquitoes. The rooms are very small and not well-kept, and breakfast is not worth the money. The hotel only offers cashless payment options, which might not suit everyone but is more convenient for locals.

My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The location was cozy and felt like a little paradise in the area, but it wasn't as close to the attractions as stated on the website. The rooms were not ready for every single necessity, and being on the second floor made in-and-out movements a bit inconvenient.
