"First off, it's worth noting that this hotel is quite a distance from the city center, so getting in and out can be a bit of a hassle. However, the hotel's environment is absolutely beautiful. The entire rice paddy landscape design is very thoughtfully done, showing great care for both people and the local flora and fauna. You can see the salad greens, herbs, ducks, chickens, and cows that contribute to your breakfast right on site.
The service is also incredibly attentive. You could easily spend an entire day relaxing at the hotel without getting bored.
Regarding the food, breakfast is delicious, but the lunch and dinner menus essentially mirror the breakfast options.
On the downside, the in-room facilities are a bit dated, I wasn't happy with the comfort of the bedding, and the air conditioning vent blows directly onto the bed."
