9/10 Wonderful! (6 reviews)

A friendly woman met me when I arrived. She showed me my room and the facilities. The Bathroom facilities are shared, at the end of a long hall; the hall night light and my room's bedside lights didn't work. There was a modern single cup coffee maker; however there were no small cups to fit the machine . There are no restaurants or grocery stores nearby. The Kitchen facilities and tables were good.

Bring a torch and wear slippers or wet footwear. Need to walk in pools of water before coming to darker caves to see lots of glow worms.
