The cabin is very close to the next ones, as they are all on the same block and you can hear your neighbours easily. The beds were very hard, but very stylish and well appointed. Limited cooking options and tiny kitchen. The spa on the deck is a great idea, but you cannot change The temperature to make it any warmer. ##### Daniel Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy Jan 10, 2024 ##### Kathy Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqui Jan 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Jacqui Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica Jan 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Jessica Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phatthanan Sep 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Phatthanan Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023
