- Review: We stayed one night, after arriving late evening to the airport and departing early morning to Safari tour. The place is not far from Airport which was convenient. It's within residential area, gated community. It was OK except quite hard to find for our driver/guides. The room was basic but sufficient. Bathroom was OK but could use some improvements, we were not very lucky with hot water. Breakfast was good and the host was welcoming and friendly., by Zuzana, January 18, 2020, rated 8/10 Good
