a wonderful, restful experience!

helpful staffsaturday specialearth hourrestful time

I found the staff very approachable and helpful. i particularly loved the saturday special that celebrates the kampung life! i also enjoyed participating in the earth hour activities. i love that i had a restful time there, and i am already planning a return visit.

The soundproofing in the room wasn't ideal. I could sometimes hear noises from neighboring rooms.
