"Affordable rooms if you are passing through. Easy to walk to the lake and vendors, nice view to the volcanos. Breakfast is so delicious! 😋 The staff were so kind and they let me ckeck in earlier then expected after a long trip. I think they can improve the amenities. There should be a couch in the room instead of chairs and some extra blankets for cold weathers."

There are no fans on the ceilings or AC, but they do provide little fans. Overall, the rooms are clean and well maintained. There are decent rooms for a good price and a good location.
