Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Beautiful property by the lake - amazing to watch the sunset every evening. Good breakfast included within price of the room. The lakeside private room had good hot showers.
Negative: You get only 1GB of free WiFi and after that you have to pay. Staff could be slow and forgetful - we asked for an estimate of our bill the day before checkout and it took them over a day to provide this even after chasing a couple of times which quite frankly is insanity. You also have to check and follow up to get the right change from them. It also took several chases and hours to get the WiFi code for the free 1GB. The pool needs to be filtered and cleaned more regularly - although beautiful to look at it was pretty grim to swim in due to the flies and the oily, dirty water.
Summary: Beautiful lakeside property, a great place to relax.

Positive: The only good reason to choose this place is the view. That's the only good reason. All the rest ? Overpriced and overestimated.
Negative: Overpriced and overrated. 20$ for a shared dorm with no towel included, full of dust and sand (at least swipe the floor before someone is coming in and I was the first one entering that room) toilet with no lights, no toilet paper, no soap, dirty swimming pool, overpriced food, and really slow service at the reception. I had to wait 30 minutes to check out because the guy at the reception didn't know that I paid my stay at the arrival and was keep asking me who was the guy I paid at (seriously ?!?!?) Definitely not worth the money you pay for staying here.
Summary: Overpriced and overrated
