"Recently stayed here and everything was better than I could have imagined. From check in through our stay everything was just amazing. The staff were all helpful, special thanks to Wada ( always interacting with all guests and always smiling), Joshua, Kevin can't thanks you all enough for making our stay more than amazing. The staff danced for me on my birthday and gave me a suprise cake. Even though it rained they still danced out in the rain. Made my day so so amazing and special. Thank you again. The accommodation was clean and located in a good and wonderful are. Close to local shops and then getting the free shuttle to the sister hotel was lovely. Many Thanks to you all."
