This is a lovely peaceful place to stay away from the hassle of Kampala. The rooms are clean, simple and well maintained. The kitchen is excellent and the friendly, helpful staff could not do more. It is very reasonably priced and I am a frequent user.

The price is quiet expensive for such standard.though it’s Position in the city is very good, it’s a save place. The beds are hard as stone, the mosquito net is not good -doesn’t close. The closet you better don’t use it’s falling apart. The breakfast and restaurant service was very good
