I’m not sure if they cleaned the room before we arrived. There was soap and opened shampoo bottles left in the shower still.

I had booked and paid for 2 nights with breakfast but upon seeing the room I raised my concerns with the manager as I was then told to leave the premises as he would not let me stay in any rooms of his. I want a complete refund

The receptionist is very friendly, he helped me with the luggage. Room is comfortable and clean, they have a big front yard with beautiful view. The location is not far from town but enough to be quiet at night, they also have electric gate for security. You could have breakfast buffet with the discount price 15$.
