the staff, the airco (it was necessary), the backup generator, the bed, there was always water, i could hand-wash my clothes, security, the breakfast place is on the first floor balcony with roof & cool breeze, the price, when i left one day early because i really needed wifi to finish work on my computer, i was allowed to be paid back that last day & night

It was a nice place to stay, for the price we paid it was just perfect. The shower is typical African open shower which I dont really like but the place, location, staff altogether was nice for 3-4 nights and we would book it again in case we have to get back.

“Great place for the price, especially given the context.”
Breakfast was simple but sufficient. It's located in the midst of a village. The walled hotel is surrounded by sand roads and small houses woth roofs of corrugated iron. It's a very local context. The hotel has a generator, if the electric grid fails and the evening begins, they will generally start up the generator.

All not bad just the Internet always switched off.... you can't try to book a ticket or anything. I payed in advance for few days Internet anytime they switched it off than it takes hours hours to be online again

I was apprehensive about staying here given some of the reviews but the only other alternatives on this night were @$100 a night or had no reviews so decided to chance it and very surprised. Felt completely safe which as a solo traveler is the most important thing for me The bed was really comfortable, the mattress didn’t sag in the middle like most seem to do and had the best nights sleep in ages. Dinner was good (there is a very limited menus ie chicken and rice but that was fine for me) breakfast again was great: sausage, egg, bread, juice and coffee. Great value given the price and for one night stopover couldn’t ask for more

Very good service. 10/10 Room had everything we needed, and in good working condition. Considering this part of Africa. Was very grateful for warm water, constant electricity and the AC of course. Will definitely be going back.
