The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Clean & Comfortable

I stayed in a Standard Double Room and appreciated the cleanliness of the new hotel. It felt very fresh and welcoming despite a few minor issues. The friendly demeanor of the room boys added to the positive vibe of the stay.

Cozy Accommodations

The Deluxe Double Room I booked was cozy and had a decent layout. Though it could use a few improvements, it provided a warm respite after a day of exploring. The comfortable bed made it easy to unwind after long hours at the temple.

Needs Improvement

While the bathroom had its shortcomings, such as occasional blockages, it served its basic purpose. Having access to necessary toiletries was a plus that made the experience slightly better.
