      "Great hotel in bad area..." Reviewed by Benyamin of "Czech Rep." on Feb 7, 2012

      Clean and relatively new hotel in bad area, but if you are using it to transit in Nightroberry, then it will do. The hotel is fenced and the security is great, as long you stay within the gates.

    Hotels.com Guest Rating
    TripAdvisor Traveller Rating
    The hotel is really pretty, the staff are very helpful and friendly, and the breakfast buffet is good. The room was small but cute. Very nice bathroom.... The one thing I didn't like was that there was no AC or mozzie net so the room could get a bit stuffy. There is a fan, but I didn't want to have the windows just wide open at night because there were a few mosquitos. In the end I had the window open with the sheer curtain drawn over it. I think they need to either offer mosquito nets or install air conditioning. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Apr 13, 2013

    I loved the room quality and the overall cleanliness / amenities of the hotel ( as good as the Sarova panafric). The service need improvement, housekeeping and restaurant. Did not have multiple items listing on the menu, long time to be service, took over 30 minutes for order item chips to arrive and the restaurant was not busy. Room only partly made […] up, towels taken not replaced. Overall happy with hotel, would stay here again Read more
