8.6/10 Excellent! (4 reviews)
"I have stayed at Ilala Crest 5 or 6 times, but was disappointed with food and service on the recent visit. At arrived for one breakfast before 8am and much of the cooked food had been used up. There was no attempt to cook more. In my next trip, I will look elsewhere."
