TERRIBLE PLACE WITH MOLD! Terribly terrible place.
Very nasty lodge. I regretted staying there. The nice photos posted online is a scam. It's not the same as you see it online. All the the good reviews are a bunch of lies, only those that say its a terrible place are genuinely telling the truth. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!!! IEven the nice kitchen posted online is a SCAM!! very terrible! I am glad I left

Good Value for your Money
The staff is great and you get good value for what you spend however, more efforts needs to be put in management issues such as ensuring parking places is well managed, more drivers to assist client with cars and ensure that clients can enjoy their stay and not constantly worry about parking issues. The Breakfast was good but must also have non spicy option as not everyone want to eat spicy food, and more efforts must be made to keep the shared kitchen clean. More efforts must be made to have power constant and for the generator to not be out of fuel.
