After two weeks of trekking, Hotel Half Moon wasn't quite the comfort we hoped for. While it boasts a decent location near the lakeside, the staff struggled with English and seemed more focused on selling activities than providing assistance. The hot water was unreliable, and other amenities like the ceiling fan and A/C were out of order. On the plus side, our room was clean, but noisy neighbors made it hard to relax, leaving us wishing we had chosen a different place.

Our stay was a mix of highs and lows. The service we received from the staff was outstanding, and our room was quite comfortable and clean. However, the amenities were lacking, especially the inconsistent hot water and noise from other guests. Despite being in a good location, I wish there had been more attention to cleanliness in the common areas.

After a long trek, I was hoping for more comfort at Hotel Half Moon. While it had a great location just a short walk from the lakeside, the service left much to be desired. The staff struggled with English and often seemed unsure. On the plus side, I enjoyed a clean room, but the lack of reliable hot water and noisy neighbors made it less than ideal. Overall, I feel I could have found a better option.

After two weeks of trekking, I was hoping for a bit more comfort at Hotel Half Moon. The location was decent, just a short walk from the lakeside, but the staff struggled with English, which made it hard to get help. We dealt with unreliable hot water, and the noise from a large group nearby was quite bothersome. I think next time, I would choose another hotel.

After a long trek, we were looking for more comfort than what we found at Hotel Half Moon. While it was conveniently located just a short walk from the lakeside, we encountered issues with the staff's communication skills and the amenities. The hot water was unreliable, and we faced noise disturbances from other guests. In contrast, our next stay was much better, with excellent service and a clean, comfortable room. The breakfast was a highlight, with the ability to order exactly what we wanted and enjoy pleasant conversations with the staff.
