"If you are seeking a great location and experience this has it all. The staff are gracious, friendly and very helpful. The room is well setup with a great sitting area, very comfortable bed and a great washroom that has a heated floor and towel rack. All restaurants are very close. As your in the rainforest they also provide umbrellas for your use, which came in very handy and needed. Highly recommend a stay here."
