Better inside than outside

The room was clean and well equipped. In Livingstone/Victoria Falls having an air con is essential and the one in my room worked well. Having a mini-fridge and a desk in the room was also very useful for me. The bathroom was clean and I had hot water in the shower. The entrance to the property and the outside of the buildings does need some attention – the friend who dropped me off there wasn’t sure if it was OK to leave me there. The pool water was quite green on the day I was there – I didn’t swim. The wifi was poor. I could send messages & browse websites but making calls or watching videos were not possible. Thankfully data is cheap in Zambia so I got myself a sim card and 2GB of data for K30 (US$1.50) at the Airtel shop. I had to pay extra for breakfast. I think they need to update their listing to show that breakfast is not included. It’s a short walk to a nearby grocery store (Shoprite) and restaurants. Try Kubu café for good coffee.

Never stay here😡

It's a pathetic place. Not sure how Hotel.com has approved this. This shows the standard of Hotel.com has been deteriorating. Hope, someone will blacklist this property.

Trevlig och hjälpsam personal, fantastiskt med pool utanför rummet! Att Zambia har begränsat elproduktionen för tillfället kan man inte klandra lodgen för!
