Excellent price for the place including breakfast. Biggest issue was there is no screen on the window and no netting so got bit all night long from mosquitos. Had to close the widow but with no AC or fan was very hot. Also killed two cockroaches.

J'avais réservé pour mon groupe d'amis et ils m'ont promis un hôtel de la qualité attendue puisque le Joy Palace ne pouvait nous accueillir tous. Nous fumes logés dans un hotel "bas de gamme", des chambres toutes petites et mal équipées (parfois sales), petit déjeuner de qualité médiocre aussi I booked for my group of friends and they promised me a hotel of the expected quality since the Joy Palace could not accommodate us all. We were housed in a "low-end" hotel, very small and poorly equipped rooms (sometimes dirty), poor quality breakfast too. NE FAITES PAS confiance à ces gens. NEVER TRUST this people !
