“Little Paradise in Jinja”
The place is just like a little Paradise. Wanted to stay there one night and in the End might be something like 10. David is an amazing Host and tries everything he can do. All staff is just amazingly friendly. Everyone should get here, take a beer with view on the Nile and just relax. Amazing place!
