Staff familiarity with each guest creates the kind of attentive service that turns logistics into genuine hospitality.
A small boutique hotel in Boo Kap- what a catch! To start with, my husband had a very reassuring call with Batsi, the manager. We were a bit tired and worried from problems with a previous Airbnb and our flight home. Batsi called us and said “ don’t worry, we’ll take care of you”. And they did. Batsi is an integral part of Amina- so reassuring,personal and professional! Along with his other staff, we were made to feel very welcome. Beautiful pool area and garden. Calm and inviting. A very nice and clean room with beautiful bathrooms. Good location, close to restaurants.
