10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely fantastic! I arrived and there were about 100 baboons on the loan to welcome me. They are the only one with a heated indoors swimming pool as well which has great sunset views. Room was comfortable and spot less and the fireplace in the restaurant and lounge is a great place to relax. But what made my stay even more incredible was zozo hands! She is a fantastic masseuse. Probably the best I had in a while, and she is an expert with stones. If you never had a hot stone massage this is the place to get it."

8/10 Good
"Location view and security aspect were outstanding. New rooms, were very clean and well organised: some lights (eg bathroom) did not work properly however, and no shelf/table space provided. Staff courteous and helpful, although some explanations needed to be extracted. Food variety and quality very good; but menu was illegible being tiny font light orange text on shiny white paper. Checkin required by guest using app was very tedious, esp on our arrival tired after a long day on the road."
