I had a great stay at this hotel thanks to its spacious and clean rooms and the extremely friendly staff who made me feel welcome. The location was perfect for a safari in Yala National Park, with several eateries nearby. However, I did notice some mold on the walls, which might be due to the weather, and the dining area had a lot of flies. Overall, it's good value for the price, but there are a few improvements needed.
