Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
With such a low daily cost, I was worried it would be minimal. But to my pleasant surprise, the room I was given was very modern looking. It had its own bathroom, and plugs for charging along with strong WiFi. Nice comfortable queen sized bed and a bunk bed. Deborah and her husband were very attentive hosts. They arranged transportation to the airport for me. The meals were low priced, tasty and plentiful. The compound has a basketball court as advertised. There were also fruit trees and flowers scattered about. I was there for a week to get over the flu and it was perfect. The one drawback was the loss of electricity every other day for a few hours, but if you keep your phone charged up, it is not an issue.
