Based on the website my husband and I booked 2 nights at Sorobon. A few days before our scheduled arrival we had on opportunity to stop by the property. WOW, the wesite pictures were deceiving! This property is run-down and dated! We were able to see the 'suite with kitchenette' that we were to stay in - the porch was rather decrepit and dark, the room was a sparcely furnished camp style room (I believe the bathroom door was a curtain) and the kitchenette consisted of a small, old refridgerator and a shelf of mismatched dishes! To be fair, there was a small plastic electric water kettle and a french press - however I saw no hotplate, microwave, sink, toaster etc. I can't imagine you could cook a meal here. We had paid $244 per night for this! When we expressed our concerns to the very friendly staff on site, their reply was "we totally understand" and gave me the number for the manger. She would not refund our money as it was a non-refundable reservation because it was made so close to our arrival date. We still chose to stay elsewhere and forfeit our $488. Lesson learned - website photo's might be 25 years old. We travel a lot and book all of our accomodations on-line. This was my first real experience of being sadly surprised. I will say if you are family that likes lots of commotion and your kids want to learn to windsurf, this might be an OK option - but is definitely not romantic or worth $244 per night!!
