I had a rough time during my stay at this resort. While it features some outdoor activities and opportunities for family fun, the issues with cleanliness and room conditions really detracted from the experience. The location near the forest is nice, but the bugs and lack of maintenance made it feel more like an outdoor camping trip rather than a relaxing getaway.
Rooms
5.0
The room had a serious spider problem and felt musty, which was a huge letdown. Even the bathroom had cracks in the flooring and poor lighting.
Service
5.0
The staff didn't seem equipped to handle the issues we faced, which only added to our disappointment. Room cleaning was noticeably absent.
Location
6.0
Though it's set in a rustic forest environment, the scenic charm is overshadowed by the pest problem I encountered in the room.
Dining
5.0
We chose to skip the breakfast at the on-site restaurant after our initial experience, opting instead for a much better place nearby.
Facilities
5.0
While there are activities like kayaking and mini-golf available, many of the facilities seemed broken or poorly maintained.
