Need to update electrical outlets for travellers with cellphones and other devices that need recharging daily. We can only found one outlet that worked in our room. One day we were left with only half a roll of toilet paper for two which’s impossible .

An aging property depending on local events and functions more than room revenues to survive. Room fixtures are dated and worn. Plumbing was sluggish to drain. Outdoor areas are also dated and could use a refresh. The live-in Monitor lizard was a surprise. Food & Beverage was a bright spot with good offerings at reasonable prices.

Nice grounds but scarcity of water and sugar
We had 2 bottles of water in our room. We asked for more in the evening; they said they would deliver but didn’t. In the morning we asked again, they said no access at front desk. After insisting they went to an empty room and finally gave us some.
