It's a fine place for one night.
Room was fine. English breakfast was regular.
When you make a reservation, ask which of the lodges your room is. We booked a "better" room but didn't know it's in the lodge II and went to lodge I (opposite the hospital). In the end we stayed there as we didn't want to walk back 20 minutes.
We wanted to have a diner here, but the kitchen stuff was busy serving a group, and later we were told preparing a meal for us would take 40-60 minutes, so we resigned as we were not that hungry.
It's a walking distance from the town center (supermarket) and from a bus station.
The wifi was disconnected without our knowledge and we had challenges working online
We mentioned to them that we needed wifi since we were on a working holiday .
The Lodge and the price are good but the service is not upto the standard. On a 3 nights visit I was told that driking water and soap are offered on the first night only. They need to review their standards if they want people coming back to them.
The Aircon worked. Breakfast was fantastic. I used to leave at six and they were willing to make me breakfast at this time (breakfast is at 7).The personnel especially the female manager was really helpful and nice. The only problem I faced was the bedding was torn. Probably due to the tightly fitted bed.i will say the rooms are a bit small (it was difficult to skip) but reasonable price for the double bed room
