Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel nestled in the jungle, which offered beautiful views and a unique atmosphere. The rooms were clean and comfortable, providing good value for the price, but I found the dining options to be a bit limited. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout my stay, and the location is a real highlight, being so close to the ruins. However, it was somewhat inconvenient that Wi-Fi had to be purchased separately, and I also felt that the facilities could use some improvement.
