"Dated would be kind. A better word is dilapidated or very run down. Next to a busy noisy market. Stained bedding seemed to be unwashed. No hot water. Uncomfortable bed. Awoke with many bedbug bites. At least the air con worked."

"The Staff at Waters Edge really are amazing. Our meals were delicious and timely. When our kids were still hungry, we ordered another pizza and it came hot and fresh in 15 minutes! The AC was cold and everything was organized for our boat and drive safaris. Highly recommend this boutique hotel."
