    The staff at this hotel were exceptionally friendly and went above and beyond to help with arrangements and transportation. They even provided free transport to the center of the city. The restaurant served delicious food, especially the pumpkin soup. The hotel facilities were new, clean, and beautiful, with a comfortable room and private toilet. The manager was understanding and treated us like family. The location was safe, quiet, and provided a relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast served was excellent.

    Can’t fault anything about it.

    We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and quiet during the night. The hotel facilities were great and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They provided transportation to the city whenever we needed and gave us advice on activities and getting a local SIM card. The bar and restaurant had good food and a cozy atmosphere, which made it easy to connect with other guests and staff. The location was convenient, with easy access to the airport and the city center. The breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of it. We would definitely stay here again!

    Nothing that we didn't like.

    The service at this lodge was exceptional! The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to help us throughout our stay. They even provided free transportation to the bus station and helped us find the right bus. The food at the restaurant was fresh and delicious. We also enjoyed learning about Tanzanian history from the knowledgeable bartender. The room was comfortable and clean, with a mosquito net and a tall bed. The lodge is in a quiet area on the outskirts of the city, which was perfect for relaxing in the evenings.

    The only downside was that we had to wait a bit for hot water in the shower. However, the staff was very responsive and quickly resolved the issue when we called them.

    Super value for money for a pre or post safari stay. Small restaurant with good food, mosquito nets, functional WiFi and hot water. Manager provides early morning airport shuttle, very friendly and helpful staff. Generous room with AC, fridge and mosquito net. Drinkable tap water. Located on the outskirts with friendly village life. Free shuttle to town and back. EXCELLENT tour and safari arrangements. Genuine and accommodating staff. Lovely freshly cooked breakfast, free shuttle, free WiFi, AC. Small bar for guests.

    We had an absolutely amazing time during our romantic escape at this lodge. The room was spacious and cozy, perfect for a couple's getaway. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We loved the delicious breakfast spread, especially the fresh mango juice and fluffy pancakes. The lodge's key location made it easily accessible from the airport, saving us a lot of travel time. And the best part? The lodge offered a complimentary shuttle service, which made exploring the nearby attractions a breeze.

    While our overall experience was fantastic, the only downside was the intermittent WiFi connection. It wasn't always reliable, which made it a bit inconvenient for staying connected with our loved ones back home.
