Greeted promptly and shown straight to my room. A very spacious room with the biggest bed I’ve ever slept in with adequate en-suite facilities. The only minor problem was the monsoon shower not working but the other shower was perfectly. A lovely coffee table. Breakfast in the morning had a reasonable menu and the host couldn’t have done more to make sure I had everything i needed. Very tasty scrambled egg on toast .
