I felt safe at the hotel but the area outside of the walls seemed a little scary. We were surprised the room did not have a safe. We had to carry our valuables with us on our day trips. But the staff were so sweet and even gave us advice on what to see and their advice was very good. The food at the restaurant is also very good.
