"Minha Experiencia foi excelente! O hotel é muito agradável, com quartos limpos e bem cuidados. O café da manhã é farto, delicioso e com bastante variedade. Eu experimentei tudo!

"A internet boa para minha necessidade, staff bem amigável e eficiente. Café da manhã além do básico, quartos limpos e confortáveis. Porém o hotel precisa de alguns cuidados. Movéis do restaurante e materiais usados no buffet do serviço de café estão precisando ser renovados. Cadeiras da parte externa das sacadas e da área da piscina também estão em mal estado de conservação e precisam de um up-grade urgente. "

"Erica and the staff were very friendly and provided excellent breakfast choices, and good coffee! The room and the entire house were very up to date and well kept. This is an amazing place to stay in Prea. The short 2 minute walk to the kite beach next to a kite school and beach restaurant makes this an ideal kite trip stop. The roof top patio is one of the the highest points in all of Prea. The view is spectacular. Easy day trip access to Jeri and other little known kite spots. Will denfinetly return. "
