It is a lovely location with lots of greenery around. We did not use the pool. We hired our safari through them and the process was easy and the service punctual. Make sure you bring cash because they dont take card. Staff made sure we made our morning safari. Good place for a short stay, at a very affordable price.

Loved this place! One of the best value for money places we found in our three week trip. The staff couldn’t have done more for us, organising tours and dishing up food in all the different parts of the hotel we ended up moving around. We liked the pool table, bean bags and pool. The rooms were lovely with high ceilings, air con and fans.

The rooms were clean, pool was nice, nice upstairs chill bit and they have bikes you can use for free which was a great way to explore. Friendly staff but everyone here is friendly.
