At the guest house, the units include a desk. Additional in-room amenities include wine or champagne. At the guest house, the units come with air conditioning and a private bathroom.

Guests at the guest house can enjoy an Asian or a vegetarian breakfast. There is a coffee shop, and packed lunches are also available. We loved the location, with its easy walk to the temple and proximity to town. However, the highlight of our stay was undoubtedly Mr. Haran's exceptional hospitality. It was truly like visiting relatives.
