It has cedar wood floors and ceramic tiles on kitchen top and bathrooms. The shared bathroom is adjacent to a kitchen with a mahogany top central island. Further on is a landing with a toilet on the left. Natural wood railings staircase leads to a Loft bedroom with own toilet and lovely view of greenery.

To the right of landing is the living room with a sofa bed and a reading desk and doors leading into the garden on the right and two bedrooms on the left: master en suite with Jacuzzi and the twin.

In keeping with the need for quietness, no television set is provided.

The APARTMENT : Cedar wood staircase leads to a living room with curved ceiling and on to cedar wood balcony with a stunning view of the garden. The long table there can be used for dining, work table or for meetings. Silhouetted lights at balcony corners give a romantic feel in the evening.

The Prime bedroom has a king bed with bay window with a beautiful view of the garden. The en suite toilet has overhead shower. The second bedroom has two beds while the third has a single bed.
