    We had a really nice stay here. The road to get there is a bit crazy if you are driving a tuk tuk for the first time, but it's manageable. The location is sort of remote, but it's also very peaceful, and you can't beat the view. You can walk into...

    It is a very clean and nice small family hotel. The family is doing you every favor you can imagine. E.g. they do very nice and cheap local tours and transport to further location. The food (also for a very fair price) is great. Would come again!
