My friends and I stayed here in 2 rooms and enjoyed the rooms. The AC was a split type, so it was very quiet and at full blast, it was extremely cool, perfect for the hot and humid weather in the area.

The owner of the place speaks English very well, even though he was about the only one who spoke English well enough to converse. He made us feel at home. The lobby was huge and the decor was very tropical. It was comfortable just sitting in a rattan chair in the lobby.

Also, I really liked how the room had a private terrace area - the view's not great, but it POURED the 2nd day we were there and watching the storm from the covered terrace was lovely.

The not-so-great parts:

The only computer is somewhat slow (spotty wireless internet connection), not available 24 hours a day, and it's enclosed in a clear plastic area which makes it slightly uncomfortable and hot, as well as perfect feeding ground for mosquitos - and you're the feed.

The bathroom's only window is connected to the hallway (high enough so no one would be able to see you). Because of the way the hotel is open to the outdoors, the bathroom becomes susceptible to flying buggies. It freaked me out a bit, but it might not bother some people. The AC hardly reaches there, and I personally closed the bathroom door whenever possible because I didn't want the flyers to get into the bedroom area.
