    Great location. Near several restaurants. Shopping centre is about a kilometre away. Churches also near by. Not far from the city centre. The Host is very helpful and assisted me to get car hire, food and information about Kigali. Thanks too for the Kola nuts, highly appreciated. They can get Naija meals/ snacks from a near-by restaurant. The staff are also friendly and helpful. Meals can be cooked for you at an extra charge, there is a stay in friendly caretaker who doubles as the cook. Overall, I had a great stay.
