My stay at the hotel was quite the mixed bag. While I really enjoyed the spacious deluxe room and the lovely pool area, the dining experience left much to be desired, especially regarding the breakfast options. The staff were generally friendly and helpful, and the hotel had some positive aspects, but it wasn't quite up to par overall.

I had an average experience at the hotel. The location was convenient for my travels, and the restaurant had a nice international menu with friendly staff, which was a highlight. However, my room was quite basic, and I encountered issues with water pressure in the shower. The hotel served its purpose for a quick stay, but I felt like I missed out on a better experience elsewhere.

I found the hotel to be adequate for a short stay, with clean rooms and a nice pool area. However, the dining experience was quite slow and the breakfast options were uninspiring. While the service was pleasant, it can be a bit haphazard, especially during busy times. Overall, it's a decent place but I would likely explore other options for my next visit.

Rooms

The rooms were basic but clean. I stayed in two different rooms; the first was quite noisy, but the second was much quieter and more comfortable. They felt a bit dated, and lighting was dim in some areas.

Located in a gated compound, the hotel felt safe, but the surroundings were a bit congested and not ideal for an evening stroll. It might not be a place to venture out after dark.
Dining

Breakfast options were standard and not very exciting, with un-refrigerated yogurt and limited warm dishes. The dinner service was slow and sometimes overlooked parts of our orders, which was frustrating.
Facilities

The pool area was nice and well-maintained, providing a clean spot to relax. However, there weren't many other standout facilities aside from this.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful overall, as it offered a safe and comfortable base before and after my safari adventures. The staff were exceptionally accommodating, especially with early breakfast arrangements. The location was close to the airport, which was a big plus, although the surrounding area felt a bit congested. The facilities and dining options could use some improvement, but considering the value for money, I would definitely recommend it.
