great stay near the park
warm greetingpowerful showerair conditioning
i found the staff greeted me warmly upon arrival and promptly directed me to the reception desk. the room featured a single bed, a king bed, and seating beyond just the bed. the bathroom had ample space, a powerful shower, and consistent hot water.
i noticed the absence of air conditioning in the room, a little warm despite the fan provided. room 11, out of the three rooms booked, was the only one equipped with air conditioning. considering that room 12 may often be allocated to the wedding couple, air conditioning could be a worthwhile consideration for future improvements.

The wedding meal was superb.
I rang and provided my details but nobody returned my call that day. I rang again two weeks later and gave my details again. I had to call again and be quite forceful to ensure I had a room reserved and paid for.
