Staff was super nice and helpful. Room was pretty clean and had everything you could need. Lake view balcony was nice, even tho most of the view was blocked by the trees. Whole city reachable by foot or tuk tuks waiting nearby.

“Be carful to check your bookings they may cancel last minute.”
Didn’t get to stay they cancelled our booking the in the middle of the night with one saying it was my card and a message saying they were fully booked after booking was made 3 months prior. They said it was a glitch in the system but the reasoning didn’t make sense. I was then offered my original booked room as good will? Not sure how when they were fully booked!
