It is a very quiet well placed little hotel, well looked after and with very helpful staff. Unfortunately we did not try the dinner as we were going out but the menu looked excellent and the breakfast was very good. The room was clean and well kept. Unfortunately also we did not try the other amenities like the gym and swimming pool but we will certainly stay there again so as to enjoy them as well as the dinner. I think the price was also very fair. Richard Mabala

Room and dining room both had visible mold on walls and ceiling and looked run-down. Dining room looked like a tired 1970’s diner- not in a good way. The smell was quite unpleasant. The price of the room was for the close proximity to the airport only! Dining room staff was pleasant and the food was good.
