A 3-star hotel with a 4.4 rating often beats a 4-star with a 3.8. We rank by guest score, not just stars. A higher-rated lower-star property is usually the smarter pick.
The most affordable options are Townhouse Oak, Mivana Hotel, Hotel Anukampa. However, we rank by guest rating first — a slightly higher price for a much higher-rated property is usually better value overall.
Book directly with the hotel or via comparison sites during shoulder season. Once booked, use TripSage to get a free briefing — knowing the best room to request can make a budget stay feel much more premium.
