I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which is nestled amid beautiful greenery. The rooms were quite spacious and came equipped with modern amenities. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, particularly at breakfast. The overall atmosphere was peaceful and perfect for relaxation, but I found the Wi-Fi connection to be quite slow, which was a bit of a letdown.
