Amandra Villa

The staff were kind and ready to help, and you can add breakfast to your room if you want. My room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and fast WiFi. The location was good too.

The receptionist was really friendly, which is why I gave this three stars instead of two. The wooden walls let you hear everything, even in the better upstairs rooms, and the cheaper ground-floor rooms are worse. Smoke from the open kitchen on one side drifted into our room during the day and sometimes made it hard to breathe. We also found an empty condom wrapper on the floor in the middle of the room when we checked in. For what you get, it felt overpriced.

The bedbugs were the biggest problem. We woke up during the night with them biting us and found seven in the bed. After we told reception, they moved us to a better room, but that room had bedbugs too, which we only noticed in the morning. The way they handled it was awful: as soon as we left, they gave the buggy room to another couple. They saw us leaving, asked why, and ran out after we explained and they checked the room. We had come because the place was advertised all over town, so it was a big disappointment. Breakfast costs an extra 70'000k, and the room itself was okay.

The wooden villa has a nice, traditional feel, and the staff were very helpful. But the walls don't block sound, and nearby roosters woke us early. The bathrooms need work, and the prices should come down.
