The gardens are very pleasing and tropical, the pool isn't big but it looks good except too cold in January ! We stayed in a Lanna room, upstairs, teak walls, big window overlooking the pool and gardens, outdoor bathroom, nice room. Yes there are leaves in the pool and bath but they constantly fall down every day. The food in the restaurant was fantastic. No mosquitos in the room, but there were some around reception and the restaurant. I liked this hotel. Not in town but easy to get there and they have a business card with directions for tuk tuk drivers.
