    We travelled with students for a school project. We stayed here for 5 nights. The hotel is based on a sort of campus of SALEM international. With a fence and gate. Also with a guard at the gate which made us feel safe. The staff is very friendly...

    The hospital with the guesthouse is in a real nice peaceful environment in the shadow of old trees. Outside the compound you look out over the hills. Everybody was very kind and accomodating.
