| Places to eat we liked: | Hotel restaraunt on the 2nd floor, make sure your guide eats with you as wait staff does not speak English. There is also a good restaraunt a couple of doors from the hotel, the snake dish tastes just like chicken. |
| Things you ought to know while staying here: | AC condensate drains onto bathroom floor and out through a floor drain, don't leave the bathmat down. There was a good placemat sized city map available in the hotel business center. |
