Check in and reception was non existent, there was no one on site to meet us, the entrance gate did not work and couldn't be locked. After waiting around for almost 45 minutes, we were forced to leave and find other accomodation.

geweldige lodge

Een mooie lodge met alles er op en er aan. Wij verbleven hier 1 nacht omdat het dichtbij de luchthaven ligt, maar je kan er heel goed ook langer verblijven. Heerlijk rustig, goed bed.
