The suite was exactly as pictured. It was clean. Yazdany manned the reception while we were there. He was so helpful and patient. The breakfast was pretty good. My only criticisms were that the trail on the property should be maintained better and that the road leading to the property was really bad. We were warned ahead of time about this but it was still a bit jarring. Luckily they were actually repairing the road the day we left so it should get better. Overall really enjoyed this stay. I will definitely return.
