" Anyone should at least stay once. All of the staff were always cheerful and helpful. Excellent service and even complimentary mostique repellent was provided. Breakfast was extremely good. Totally comfortable, enjoyable and peaceful. Strongly recommended. Please refer to my review in Tripadvisor.
Avoid going there at peak season. Before the place is packed by Mainland Chinese, please visit there as your earliest convenience. "
