I had a large room with a large double bed. The hotel is quite clean and offers sufficient hot water. The ladies working there are very friendly and helful. Especially the breakfast included is quite nice. Compared to other hotels offering breakfast I once stayed at, the breakfast here is the best. 非常满意!!!

“Lovely tranquil location”
I’m writing this a few weeks after my stay so I can’t remember the name of the owner but she was very lovely. The rooms were spotlessly clean and the gardens were beautiful. Very nice and quiet location.
