Although the place has no Wi-Fi, some networks are capable of having signals to some areas (but that should be fine, you are here for a break and that break includes a break from social media or from the Internet itself). The place has their own wide-screen TV, in case you really need technology to survive even in a remote area.

The jacuzzi and the swimming pools, both for adults and kids, is also a nice touch for a rest house that is located on mountaintop. The aesthetic design of the pools and the jacuzzi is also noted by the guests who have visited here as unique.

The amenities of the rest house include a kitchen all complete with utensils, rice cooker, refrigerator, electric kettle and water dispenser. Also, guests can barbeque in the grilling area provided that they bring their own charcoal. Since there is no restaurant or any food stores nearby, guests are encouraged to bring their own food to cook or prepare.
