    The 24 hour WhatsApp customer service could be checked more often.

    The breakfast was delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful. The loft was spacious. When asked for help, staff were very attentive.

    The property hasn’t been maintained well. Stains on the sheets, and other little things like that. It has so much potential, so close to great. But you can see why it doesn’t have a higher rating.

    Staff was great! The whole vibe was cool and fun.

    You may request for quiet room but it is very difficult to get such.

    Very helpful staff and they are very discrete as well. It has a rustic touch that i like. It can get very hot in the room.

    Twice went to the restaurant to order and they were out on the food I wanted. Just had to order something else. 1st night I got in at around 22:30 I wanted to shower there was no hot water.

    The staff was amazing from the gate to the reception to meeting them on the premises. I appreciated the friendly smiles back. The internet connection perfect no issues. I loved loved the lofts I stayed in, everything about it was just perfect... my 7 days in Lusaka 4 were spent at the Cubes. Definitely coming back.

    Responsiveness to messages on booking.com could be improved to help first time visitors

    The Facility is exactly as is in photos. Even better in person. The room was cleaned daily and staff were very resourceful. We also enjoyed a complimentary visit to Sakae plus daily breakfast which really warmed our hearts. Ms Mutale was very welcoming and accommodative of all our requests! Will definitely recommend the property and look forward to future visits!

    The generator kicked in quite quickly when the electric power failed. No AC but a good fan on 2nd floor in the room ares was available. The suns strikes very heavily there so aces to cold fresh air is vital. the bin i locked it in one of the kitchen cabinet , it should have a lid ,as it attracts some ants.

    The design, the loft 2 floors, the nearby restaurant and the what's app concierge. Felt at home very quick. As I Had already a Yango driver, it was easy to move around the property. I felt very safe as a solo traveller all the time coming back form a business trip.

    The wardrobe space is rather impractical, long power cuts (out of control of the facility) meant I couldn't work the microwave/stove to heat food, sometimes took time for the guard to respond to open the gate when leaving early in the morning - consider providing guests with a gate key to enable independence.

    Trendy construct & design, comfortable stay, excellent value for money

    In need of better upkeep, giant wall of windows without curtains or blinds compromised our privacy and made it very hot. The AC wasn’t working and opening the windows (without screens) let mosquitoes in. In those conditions, we wish they had provided mosquito nets over the beds. Small common swimming pool, but no lounge chairs. On demand water heater needs to be recalibrated in shower. To get it to signal demand, we needed to set it to fully hot. As soon as we turned the faucet to a non-scalding temp, the water heater turned off and only cold water came out.

    Funky modern industrial design in quiet location about 30 minutes from airport. Free Netflix streaming, spacious.

    The bed was very squeaky & the mattress rolled into the middle. When the staff were informed about the bed being uncomfortable they acted immediately & said they would rectify. As we were leaving that day but returning the following week they assured us that we would be in another room which we were with a more comfortable bed 👍🏻 More outdoor protection from the rain & sun would have been great at the bar/pool/ entertaining area so that it could be accessed in all weather. The staff had a very small kitchen to work in which I think attributed to meals taking longer than expected to be prepared. Food was delicious but very slow to arrive.

    Clean apartment with very friendly staff. We were in a back apartment which seemed quieter than the front ones which definitely had more traffic noise. Great to have the extra toilet facilities downstairs in each apartment. The generator & solar backup meant that we were hardly affected by the current load-shedding situation in Lusaka. Always able to charge our devices, have hot showers & have good lighting.

    A more comfortable sofa would be great & some extra seating within the apartment. We had visitors drop by to see us several times and as there was some rain some evenings and no outdoor cover at the bar area from the rain we had trouble comfortably seating everyone inside. The beds/mattresses needed updating.

    Great atmosphere and helpful staff. We loved having our own space with the apartment having both upstairs and downstairs. The inclusion of a daily clean and laundry service was excellent. We also loved that the number of guests was small so felt that the staff really got to know us over the time we were there.
