The property was right off the main road which made it convenient to get to. Parking could be a bit tight depending on the day. The property had a restaurant and there was sushi outside also. The property was otherwise not walkable to get much else. Rooms were very clean and well taken care of. The bungalow we stayed in was wonderful and looked out at the Volcano. Pools were clean. The gonna were well manicured and looked after.

The garden and location of this hotel was beautiful. However, the rooms were not numbered and was confusing to remember, which was yours. Also, we had no hand towels or washcloths. The ceiling light/fan had a mind of its own and would turn on or off randomly, including in the middle of the night. The breakfast was very good however they need to cover the food due to the massive amount of flies landing on the buffet. Parking was good but limited, and sometimes the parking lot was completely full. Staff was friendly and courteous.
