Accomodation was booked for a colleague. He was so unhappy with the place that he left and stayed elsewhere!
Staff was friendly and helpfull.
The power was of and the Generator did not run the entire time. The aircons did not work and die bathrooms need serious attention. The location is extremely poor.
Disappointing
Breakfast was not ready; they try to collect more money from me, they said I just paid booking.com fee and not the price for the hotel - be careful
Good proximity to the airport
Drop off and pickup points some distance away from the hotel and was risky in the night. Hectic airport pick up arrangements inconvenienced my short sleep over for the next day flight.Very unfriendly receptionist
Pleasant
Sockets didn’t work, there was no shampoo, the hotel isn’t accessible by car
Next to airport, Welcoming and smiling staff, bed is great.
The road to the hotel was very bad,half of the time was no power and the rooms are very hot with out ac
Brekfast was so besic,bad load to the hotel and very hot rooms with no ac
The location to the international airport is very good. The lady on duty at the reception was very friendly and the hotel was very kind to accept the change of date with my booking. The bed was very comfortable and the transfer service to/from airport very quick and reliable.
Breakfast was included in my price but, when I asked for a takeaway breakfast at check in as I needed to check out early the next morning, it was not available/possible.
Nice place, quiet, clean, big comfortable rooms and big garden outside the house. Both owners were very kind and helpful. Breakfasts and dinners were great and big. For us even too much ?. The kids loved the garden and both dogs (kind dogs, like to cuddle). The living room is very nice too. Beds are great, everything is clean and mosquito nets are intact. But we saw no mosquitos anyway.We recommend city tour with Joshua and he can connect you with local people for example to get a cheap transfer to airport or even a safari company.
Room provided all we needed. Staff friendly.
Credit card machine not working. Major road works all around.
Staff were warm and welcoming .
Basic amenities like dental kits were not there , not even shops were there so I can purchase it .
Bad
When I arrived the receptionist told me they had overbooking. I had to wait in the dining room till 3am for my room.
Near the airport. They arranged a nice dinner of chicken and chips for us and have a small bar with beer and soft drinks. Good wifi. Nice lady on reception.
A road is being constructed outside the property and the work goes on all night! Not their fault, but while it continues not great for a night's sleep. They send out automated emails about arranging cabs for $5 (which is all you should be paying ast the aiport is so close), but didn't act on my message requesting a pick up from the airport. Shame, but not the end of the world. TVs don't work.
The location is good
They did not serve me breakfast as agreed and they overcharged me.
Close to airport, clean sheets, intact mosquito net, very tired decor but fine for a one night stopover.
Shower didn’t work - no water at all. Eftpos machine was out of order so make sure you take cash
I liked the hospitality I received from the staff members
Bad air conditioning and dim lighting
Nothing other than the location
1. What's on the pictures is the opposite of what's available on ground 2. Charged for breakfast which was terrible and not on time
