"I am Muzungo and my bride Ugandan. We spent our honeymoon here while enjoying Jinja’s attractions. We found the place to be nice by Uganda standards and after sorting out a few things with the very helpful staff our stay was very nice. They have amazing water pressure and depending on the room you get, amazing showers. I found the staff to be very helpful and the restaurant kept me and my wife well fed with very good food. They even accommodated my wife’s taste for mostly local foods which their menu doesn’t really offer. It was quiet and taken care off and very peaceful. The location is actually very good for getting to the different adventure activity companies located by Victoria Lake and the Nile River. I would stay there again as my wife and I felt like we made friends with the staff."
