We had a perfect stay, all of the staff were friendly and helpful. They provided breakfast boxes for us to take in the morning because we had to leave earlier than breakfast was going to be served. Great service and clean, big room!

This is a lovely property and I had planned to stay on a few days after my tour to rest and relax however there was no internet in the room, the faucet in the sink and shower was broken (cold shower for me) and there was an incessantly barking dog the for the three nights I stayed that did not quit the whole night long. It was fine for the stopover before and after my tour but to rest and relax, not a chance. Also, a busy road in front of the place had lots of noisy motorcycle, truck and car traffic noise. NOT relaxing at all. The damn dog was the WORST!

Good located hotel

Very nice hotel near the city centre. The room was very big. The grounds are lovely with a lots of plants. The restaurant was good with fair prices. They also provided breakfast boxes for us when we had to leave early. The only thing I did not like was the shower, there was almost no pressure and very little water, but luckily it was warm.

Good for pre or post safari stay

I stayed here one night after a safari. Grounds are nice. There is a restaurant with reasonable prices. Internet is only in the lobby area. There appeared to be a few restaurants in the area withing walking distance.

I spent three days prior to my Safari. Most of the time there was no electricity in my room, what’s made my stay very unpleasant.

The staff is lovely so I would like to give a great review but I can’t. My room was so full of mold I had to ask them to change. Luckily another room was available but no water in the shower the second night + morning. The staff found a Plan B - I had a shower on the mold room.
