Everything was super clean! The staff was extremely sweet and kind!! Also, breakfast was included which was a huge plus :) only thing was that there was no hot water - it was a bit colder than room temp. Then the following day, there was something wrong with the pump everywhere so the water was coming out brown and the toilets weren’t working so basically you were very limited with resources.

No mention of having no hot water. It is ok to not have hot water but it should be very clear when booking. I also hold Hotels.com responsible for this issue.
They have a gs stove that not functional due to no pots and pans.
No hot water. Very clean though.
Pretty comfortable bed. Clean room. Very good ac

The staff was really nice. Breakfast was amazing ! My only con was the noise level the hotel is on the main road so you can hear when big trucks are passing by.

I have stayed at this hotel before and loved my stay that is why I rebooked it. Upon arrival I had to ask for extra towel only one was in the room. Had to ask for toilet paper there was none in the room nor toiletries. The sheets were stained it looked as if the room was not properly cleaned. I was disappointed with my stay at the hotel this time.
