"The hotel is would have been hard to find using the address given in the booking, however, I did some research and found that the address can be found if you use the hotel name in your GPS. Ojais is included in the street address and that makes all the difference. I have alerted the hotel staff. The hotel is beautiful and romantic with gorgeous rooms and foyer. The room was clean and tidy and well appointed. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Best hotel yet."
