Clean nice property to stay at. Nice private courtyard behind your unit.
The only issue I have is they charge you ten dollars per towel to use pool.
Quiet considering your near a main road.

This place was good. Nice and clean. The pool was great. The only issue is that our room was too hot. In the middle of summer air-con would’ve been great because the fan only blew hot air around. Would’ve given more stars.
