At my next arrival, I would rather to pay by MasterCard (currently impossible)

Not sure why but one of the questions from booking.com was, "were there any wild animals kept at the property"! Truly strange as this is part hostel, part hotel and for the price that I paid I assumed I would get a very basic room but it was almost similar to a hotel room and NO, there were no wild animals. The room and bathroom were spacious and the accommodation itself very clean with good wifi. I booked on-line and in the information given it said someone would be there until 8pm. I do not have a cell phone but thankfully I checked my booking.com account as I tried to call the property and no one answered. I saw in my booking.com messages that they had sent me a message as to how to retrieve the key via a lock box (with code) at the side entrance of the building. In the end all worked out. They even have a TV channel with German Schlager Music which I love. I thought it was really good for what I paid.

Michael Canada

Everything the hotel has offered was wonderful and to our comfort. Its a well located silent place ,naturally rich surroundings .The staff is very supportive and cheerful.Open space in the reception ,galleries at all floors and spacious wash rooms. Coolbreeze and open area around gives a heavenly feel.

Pratap India

Excellent Staff,very clean but unfortunately the location is 15 minutes foot walk to the nearest bus station

Samah Germany

The room was clean, spacious and had their own private washroom and TV. I would definitely recommend to spend the extra money if you're traveling alone to stay in a private room. The staff is very friendly and will do whatever it takes to make sure everything meets the guests expectations. I would stay with them again!

Mario Canada

Very cozy and nice, big bright rooms. Amazing and very attentive staff, always willing to help.
