"Ok stay, great airport shuttle pickup. Rooms and hotel is dated, motion sensor lights in room were annoying and needed to be switched off so we could sleep. Gym was ok but very busy, breakfast was ok, staff weren’t that friendly at breakfast but the guy cleaning the rooms was super nice. Also, checkout is 11am but our key card stopped working at 9am or so. Fair price and good enough."

"They are currently shifting to the place across the street, so things are bit haphazard as they make the change. They did switch us to a different room when our key wasnt working. They also worked very hard to accomodate us in other ways. Overall good experience. "

"This hotel was not open when we got there. I had no alerts from Orbits and had to have local Rwandans help us figure out how to transfer hotels. Horrible communication for this as we traveled very far to stay here and booked well in advance."
