Hotel El Bambu

Deceptively large. The rooms were great but swimming pool in state of disrepair. Staff and food great.

Le cadre des logements dans le jardin, qui a permis de voir des singes à quelques mètres. Très bon petit déjeuner buffet (omelette à la demande à composer soi-même) Accueil par un jus de fruit

The property is located in a busy area of town, which makes it convenient to explore and has many local dining options. It also adjoins unspoiled land where we were able to see and hear many wild animals from our room. The hotel is a bit dated but very clean and comfortable. Our bathroom door would drag on the floor and get stuck. And we noticed a few outside doors of other rooms with large gaps in the framing, which let bugs and heat in the room. The ac gets wonderfully cold, and the balcony is spacious with chairs and a table. All of the staff is accomdating and friendly. They were even willing to help us place a food order for delivery to the hotel despite having their own restaurant. Breakfast is included and gives 6 options to choose from, which is nice since it is green season and not busy enough to offer the buffet. The only things I did not care for about the accommodation is the noisy creaking wood flooring in the room which makes it impossible to not disturb your companion, no mini fridge to keep cold water or beverages, and despite having a coffee maker in the room, they only provide 2 pods for your entire stay (there were 2 of us staying 3 nights) so you had to go to the restaurant for your morning coffee. When we asked about additional pods, we were told we would have to pay extra, and housekeeping doesn't replenish them when servicing your room. Overall, a nice and comfortable property for a short stay.
