City with so much energy

3/5 - Okay

Max

Addis Ababa is an interesting city but I had such a bad experience at this hotel it marred the entire vacation. I recommend selecting a hotel based on user experience. Giving newly listed hotels a chance is too risky.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Overall, I had an excellent stay. I recommend requesting a room on the opposite side of the building away from the School.

2/5 - Disappointing
