  • Andrew

    The staff were very welcoming and friendly and were always on hand to assist with a smile. The little lounge area with a fireplace is really a cozy place to rest and relax after a long day out exploring.
  • Jann

    The staff is exceptionally helpful and nice! Received a small welcome gift and juices. Offered table tennis, volleyball and football to use for free. It's a nice place to stay at.
  • Nicole

    If you travel just as a normal person, not a tourist willing to pay thousands of dollars a night for (still only average) accommodation, it’s quite difficult to find some sort of value for money in Rwanda. It usually all looks okay in the pictures...
