Very happy. Receptionist Ms. Deborah was pleasant, caring and helpful. Always smiling. Thanks also to GM Mr.Suman Kumar who allowed extra hours for check out as my return flight to Nairobi was delayed. Lovely and cozy restaurant. Nice place to stay, plenty of space to take a walk. Spacious rooms with amenities. Overall excellent.

Old property and things are falling apart. Needs major renovation, food is not good at all. The food quality is very low and one surprising thing is breakfast room service is 25,000 shillings, it means if you decide to have breakfast in your room they will a charge you room service 25,000($12). I find this ridiculous especially if you look at the food they serve.
