    spacious rooms, excellent shower, convenient location

    The toilets should be fixed for proper flushing!!! Card access failures made every entry a hassle!!! The lack of a small swimming pool for cooling off under the sun was disappointing!!!

    great shower pressure
    poor wifi connection

    The shower had great water pressure, making it a perfect way to unwind after a long day exploring the city.

    The wifi connection was quite poor, and I had to switch rooms multiple times to find a better signal.

    We had a wonderful time exploring Kampala. The area shuttle helped us get around easily, and the staff were incredibly friendly. The teenager's favorite was the comfortable Deluxe Double Room, which made relaxing after our adventures a breeze.

    My kids wished for more breakfast options.

    great value
    limited breakfast

    The spacious Deluxe Double Room provided a comforting retreat after exploring Kampala. I loved the thoughtful touches like the frosted glass for my beer, making room service feel special. Each staff member contributed to my positive experience, especially during late checkout approval when I needed it. Breakfast had limited options that ran out quickly by 9 AM, highlighting the need for better food management. The area around was easily accessible, but cleanliness could improve as I found old wrappers in the wardrobe. Overall, these quirks aside, the room was quiet and comfortable, making for a pleasant stay in the city.

    great value

    This place was just a commendable fit for a cursory stop in Kampala with great value for the money. The staff was incredibly friendly, especially the doorman who helped me find my way around the city. Bring a power adapter for your devices, as they don't have USB ports in the rooms.

    The Deluxe Double Room was spacious and the bed super comfy, which helped me unwind after exploring the city. The shower had great water pressure, and I loved that it came with a frosted glass for my beer. The staff was always around to help with anything I needed, making my stay feel very welcoming. Breakfast was okay, but you can't expect much from a non-fancy hotel.

    the attentive staff went above and beyond to assist, offering great recommendations and even helping with transportation. the food was freshly prepared and satisfying, with a nice variety, although vegetarian options were somewhat limited.

    liked everything 😊 but could use more vegetarian choices.
