My stay at this boutique hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were clean and neat, although I did notice a lack of air conditioning and a few technical issues. The service was welcoming, though I did encounter some wait times at reception. The location was impressively tranquil, with easy access to nearby shops, but there were a few concerns regarding the proximity to staff quarters. Despite these minor drawbacks, I found the value for money to be satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was beautiful and tranquil, with easy access to shops, which I loved. However, the room I got was dark and unwelcoming, and the amenities were lacking for a boutique hotel. Service was professional but marred by noisy guests early in the morning. Dining was a letdown, but overall, there were some highlights that made my stay worthwhile.

The room felt dark and depressing, with a misaligned toilet seat and missing features typical for a 3-star hotel. It was also much smaller than I anticipated, which was disappointing.

My stay at this boutique hotel was quite a mix. The location is really serene and beautifully kept, which I appreciated. The rooms, however, felt like they could use a little updating, and I had a couple of annoying disturbances from staff passing by my room at early hours. The dining experience started off well, but it didn't quite maintain that quality on the second day. Overall, it's a charming spot, but it has its quirks that may not suit everyone.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel, as it was beautifully tranquil and well-maintained, making it a lovely spot to unwind. The services, especially during the wedding function, were exceptional, and the food was generally good, though I found the dinner on the second day to be mediocre. The only downside was the noise from staff outside my window, which disrupted the tranquility I was hoping for.
