The Cottage was a cozy retreat, perfect for couples, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms, although smaller than anticipated, exuded a sense of coziness ideal for a romantic getaway. The staff provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. The location, right next to The Village, offered convenience and charm, although some aspects felt slightly dated. The dining experience was near various attractions, including traditional shabu-shabu.

Walking into our room felt like being instantly transported to another themed world, though the lack of A/C or ceiling fan made it uncomfortably hot during the day, leading to difficulties falling asleep at night. The room was very dusty with a lot of spider webs visible.
