I had a good stay in a very busy place.

8.0

The friendliness of the staff. It is more like s family hotel.

The rooms are not particularly big. They are rather small.

Pretty disappointing

5.0

Hot water shower. Room a decent size.

Breakfast service was chaos. Completely empty buffet that staff struggled to restock. Food was basic, waited 15 minutes for a coffee cup. Dinner was highly disappointing and not as described in the menu at all. Mattress old and sagging. Wouldn’t return to stay here.

ANDRENKK · CD · 2026-07-18

It's a comfortable hotel but the breakfast isn't to everybody's taste.

7.0

The hotel has a central location, not that there's much of interest there. There's a good view from the dining room and everybody is helpful.

There's a free wake-up call at 05:30 from the local imam

Not great but okay for value.

8.0

Great location in busy Kariakoo. Close to airport. Friendly staff.

Bathroom especially showers need refurbishing. Breakfast too much india oriented.
