Loved by Emerald Palm Boutique Hotel guests
"The room is nicely decorated and sparkling clean."
"The building is old and very traditional and 'authentic-looking', I personally loved this as it made it feel very cosy and like home."
"The room has character."
“This hotel presents a mixed bag, where the staff's warmth contrasts sharply with maintenance concerns. While mosquito nets and bug spray are provided, street noise might be a factor. I believe that improvements in management and facilities would better reflect the welcoming nature of the local staff.”

This place has a superb location! I found it in the heart of the town. I enjoyed the walkable location. Everything was close. Breakfast was include, and that was delicious.
The shower head had minimal water come out. I had to squat down and use the tap below to shower. This was difficult because I am tall. I also could hear noise from the street at night.
