“A Month That Felt Like Home ❤️”
I loved staying here so much that I extended my stay and ended up spending a whole month! What began as a hotel stay became something much more special. As an older woman travelling alone, I felt genuinely welcomed and, before long, like one of the family. The staff are simply wonderful. When I had a few quiet days and didn't leave my room for a while, they gently let me know they had been concerned about me. I was absolutely fine, just suffering a little travel burnout, but their kindness and thoughtfulness touched me deeply. It is rare to find that level of genuine care. Breakfast was always a pleasure and kept me happily sustained for the day. I loved my room and was glad I paid a little extra for the rice field view. Waking up to that peaceful, beautiful landscape was a joy. The owner visits every day and clearly takes enormous pride in the hotel, ensuring everything is beautifully maintained. He is also a talented artist, with his wonderful work displayed throughout the property, and a genuinely lovely person. And of course, Mr Bing deserves a special mention for keeping everything running so smoothly! The entire team makes this place what it is. I also grew to love the surrounding area. Rio Coffee Shop quickly became my morning ritual, and I can highly recommend the gym next door for its yoga classes. What makes this hotel special isn't simply the rooms, the views or the breakfast. It is the people, the atmosphere and the feeling that somebody cares about you. I arrived as a solo traveller and left feeling that I had found a little home away from home. I would return in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful, welcoming and full of genuine kindness. I loved everything!
