Very unresponsive owner. Not acceptable in the tourism space where people skills are a must.

This is absolutely the best resort in Tabakoshi, the service, rooms, ambience and the Rangbang river near the property everything is just awesome. 1. The cottages are wonderful with wooden floors and comfortable, they are surrounded entirely by Greenery and the constant sound of the flowing river makes the entire stay even better. 2. The food was absolutely delicious and delivered to the rooms. The presentation was also amazing. 3. The best thing is the River accessible directly from the property, you can sit, relax and enjoy the river in the serene surroundings. Overall, our experience was extraordinarily great and everything is 10/10, the park and bridge are nearby as well. The only downside is the water which is a bit yellowish, not a big deal but yes something to be noted.
