Very good ☺ Only one guy speaks English, but all the people are friendly. The room have a lot of privacy and it’s completely sorrounded by nature. They can organize a private Safari at Yala for a good price. ☹ The driver for the Safari is a really good hunter, and friendly man but don’t speaks English.

Great location and clean/secure. ☺ Clean, comfortable, well located and staff were very helpful. Food was good in the restaurant. Hot water ok. Bed was cosy. ☹ Two hour wait time for food but you can conveniently order it in advance without being in the restaurant.

Nice staff. ☺ It is a nice place with a good bathroom with a toilet that doesn't get wet when you have a shower. The staff were helpful as we were leaving at 5:30am and they had food ready for us as we were going on the safari. ☹ It was hard to find as it is further down the road than google map says.
