No artsy experience

First of all, it is not a hotel or even an art gallery. It's a Airbnb-type apartment. Secondly, the room I booked on hotels.com was already occupied when I got there. The host said I had to wait until the room is free before I have my room. I never got my room throughout the 10 nights that I stayed. There was no air conditioner in the room I stayed. Although the weather was chilly so I didn't really have a need for an air conditioner. But I wonder what will happen during hot times of the year. Only the bed, dressing mirror and toilet is clean. Everything else had not been cleaned in a while. There was a mosquito net hanging from the ceiling above the bed that disgusted me throughout my stay. The host was helpful when he was around, otherwise you have to deal with two attendants who don't speak or understand English. The attendants helps in running the place. One usually handles the food, while the other handles cleaning. Breakfast is usually white bread (always dry and tasteless, I got better in town). Good thing is you are free to cook your own food in the kitchen. I think they also have dinner on request. You can also get your laundry done for free. WiFi is okay and working 24/7. The neighborhood is good (although the house is on a dirt road) and not too far from the city center.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Upon arrival, no one asked my name and the staff did not speak English they just opened the door to the room. There is a simple breakfast in the morning but no bar or way to get water. It is not really a hotel as much as it is someone's unused home. They lock the property at night so there is absolutely no way to get in or out and no way to contact the host if you need to get out. If you are arriving by foot it typically takes someone 15 minutes to come unlock the door for you. It is quite a bit out o the way and I frequently had motos say they were unwilling to drive me there. The house was clean but I would not reccomend staying here.

Low key, nice view

This is a great, low key hotel in a lively part of town - very close to US embassy, nice cafe (Shokola), and easy access to the rest of Kigali

アートとは関係のない普通のB&B

12月下旬に一泊約3000円で「デラックスダブル ガーデンビュー」に宿泊した。 Kacyiruのバス停から徒歩約10分ほど離れた住宅街の中にあるB&B。「アートギャラリー」という名がついているが,そういう名称がある時期流行したのか,キガリにはそう名乗る店舗をよく見かける。ここは普通のB&Bで,アートとは関係がない。 Wifiは昼間にとても遅くなり,時には使いものにならない。 部屋は広くて快適。宿の前の道路は未舗装。
