Avoid! Owner is threatening!!

Unfortunately a very bad experience. There was no power and no wifi. The food was extraordinarily expensive and awful. When I left they didn't believe I paid for my stay even though I showed the email confirming payment went through, the owner called the driver of a taxi I was on and was very threatening. I hate to leave a bad review and there were some nice people that worked there but the owner made me feel very unsafe so I have to advise everyone to avoid at all costs.
