Stay at Sahdow Inn
The 2 Rooms we booked were not available . Then the owner proposed to us a family room instead. We fought before getting back our money. The service was at the end not so bad.

Great stay at evergreen. Staff are fantastic. Room was basic but clean, spacious and very comfortable. Hot showers. Good location. Would recommend some lights for the sign on the road as it's hard to see it night. Thanks for a lovely stay.

My experience was very bad and we ended up reserving another hotel. We reserved a one king a one twin but only one bed was there. Mosquito and some insects were in the nets and they had holes.

Good location fine for a stopover
Hotel is in a good location close to the local restaurants. The thing is, like most of the accommodation we have stayed in the staff are really keen to help you and the owners, in this case the family are very proud of their guesthouse. However with a rush of arrivals off of the train they gave our pre booked family room away!! We were put in two doubles, so no massive drama it was just 2 nights, some may of made a bigger deal of this but to be honest, they made a mistake and appreciated that we didn't get mad! Blood pressures remained stable. The water pressure however was irritating, literally none on the third floor at the end of a hot day was not ideal. We coped and all was restored. Overall the mother of the family saved the day, she was calm really helpful and very welcoming to us.

Great location, value for money!
Much better than the photos. Room was very spacious with big bed and modern bathroom, shower could have been a little more powerful. Friendly staff and tasty breakfast. Great value for money and good location close to the supermarket and town. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Skuffende oplevelse.
Værelset var elendigt og levede slet ikke op til hvad der var lovet via hotels.com. Badeværelset var uhumsk og det lugtede af kloak. Hotel værterne var søde og servicemindede og dette trak væsentligt op. Kan desværre ikke anbefale dette sted.
