Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location is great, right on the river side and a short 15 mins walk to the village centre. The staff were friendly and our guides were incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife of the area. The pool was great too.
Negative: Unfortunately, the rooms have no windows (but do have bug nets) and did not have Aircon. This is a shame as even budget hostels in the village appear to have this. The beds were very hard and were difficult to sleep in. Because of this plus the humidity, our suitcases and belongings became permanently damp. We stayed during the start of the wet season - sleeping must be incredibly difficult during the hotter months. I would prepare for some sleepless nights.
Summary: A lovely place, but needs some upgrading
