“amazing place in amazing location”

Reviewed 14 June 2013 NEW

excellent location, personalised approach by chef sohan who made us feel king size, room service is poor, pathetic house keeping, congested rooms with hardly any place to move around. sheetings & mattress was also old. air conditioning starts in night time only really funny argument.
