Great staff from front desk to employees. Nice to see that they now had a kitchen with good food. However, I still would not recommend this place. I can tell the staff work in fear of being fired by the owners girlfriend. The ownership treats the staff like garbage. Also when something goes wrong there is no sort of compensation. I have to shower at another place because the water turned brown (didn't think that's what I paid for). Also this is my 2nd stay here. I witnessed the owners girlfriend disrespect the employees and treats them like animals. I noticed some of the staff work 24 hour shifts and some work at least 12 hour shifts. It appears as if they have no respect to the locals as they are being slaved in their own country. Spend your money at a place where the employees are appreciated.

Nice if you're on a budget, otherwise avoid
This isn't a full-time hotel and should not be advertised as one. They don't have a full-time staff member, which was especially problematic when the power went out and no one helped.
