I loved the garden and the cold towel the front reception gives you upon arrival. I wish I could have stayed longer here, but my flight home was early in the morning. Beautiful property with views of the mountains. Restaurant was good and so were the drinks. Would love to come back.

The hotel was close to airport and the transportation was convenient. It was small secluded hotel with a nice view towards the city. I love the walking areas and the sound of nature at night and in the early morning. Breakfast was delicious. The shower was spacious and water pressure good! Beds were comfortable. I would return to this hotel. Thank you.

It was a good place up 4,000 ft above sea level. Felt cool in the May morning (upper 60’s). The hotel had a coffee walking trail in property. We had a great balcony view of the city. Staff was always very helpful. Good was decent. Prices were in US dollars. There’s no AC in the rooms but it was ok with the ceiling fan at night. Getting to the hotel from downtown can take 45-60 minutes just because of the heavy traffic all over town. Overall good experience.
