    The accommodation was a perfect choice for my first night in Uganda. I felt very safe and well taken care of. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and helpful – their hospitality was out of this world. If I could, I would choose this guesthouse again without hesitation.

    Nothing. Because everything was great !!

    The staff are the BEST : super kind and helpful. I arrived late at night, tired. They made the registration process very easy and fast. They gave me a very nice large room which I did not expect to get. I was expecting a small room. Bathroom is spacious unlike most others Ugandan guest houses I’ve been to. Breakfast was so Awesome!! I usually just have fruits and they gave me 2 very yummy fruit plates: mango pineapple passion fruit and avocado!! All made to order as I refused other options like eggs and bread. First time I had healthy food in Uganda!! I started eating immediately so I forgot to take photos. 😞 The place is close to all major sites: beaches, restaurants, malls and downtown.

    I had a wondweful stay at this hotel! The staff provided exquisite treatment, always friendly and attentive to any needs I had. The breakfast was a delighful highlight included in the stay and featuring the high quality, authentic products of Uganda. The generous portions truly made my mornings special, it is indeed renowned for its high quality coffee and delicious frutis such as mangoes, pineapples, bananas and passion fruits, are enjoyed. The owners and the hotel team are genuinely kind and fantastic people, making the experience even more memorable. Highly recommended for a warm and authentic Ugandan hospitality experience!

    If you are looking for a place located quite close to the airport but far from the noisy city where you can relax and regenerate - this is the right place. The owners of the guesthouse make every effort to make you feel special. They can even prepare breakfast for dinner if you leave very early :) Best regards and .. I hope to see you soon.

    That I had to leave.

    Everything! I stayed here the end of January as I started my self drive safari Uganda. From the moment I arrived it was the warmest reception, being shown my beautiful room (awesome bed), location perfect (mall is close by), and breakfast outstanding. Do yourself a favour, book here. (I'm a month late writing this review... and during all this time, this guest house is still the best.)

    Nothing at all.

    Staying here provided me with just the comfort and positive energy I needed. Hospitality was amazing, especially Agnes deserves a special mention for making me feel so welcome and making sure everything was A-OK. Since I was the only guest at the time, they upgraded me to their best room, a very nice gesture. Breakfast each morning was an absolute delight, with abundant fresh fruits, bread, eggs and even the strong black coffee I like. The place is conveniently located. Wonderful, highly recommended!

    The room was too small for me, and using a public toilet in a guest house is outdated in this contemporary world.

    I did not spend the whole night there. I just booked a room to change, rest, and catch up the plane at 2:00 a.m., so I cannot talk much about many services offered at the guest house.
