Great experience. However, it took forever to be served meals! Maybe a suggestion would be to order ahead of time!

Had to pay twice, rude response from hotel staff

Very terrible experience. Hotels.Com deducted the payment and yet Sunbird Chintheche didn't get the payment. I had to make the payment again. Now trying to process refund from Hotels. Com
