Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: It is truly a very good hotel. We went there to see elephants, and we really enjoyed watching them. I have visited this hotel several times, and it is very beautiful. This time, the room we were given was beautiful, very clean, and quite spacious. The food was very tasty. We will definitely visit this hotel again. One hundred percent excellent.
