Older, rather dated mid-range hotel. Good value

Oasis in the full chaos!

It's an oasis in the middle of the chaos or Makerer-Kampala. Do not expect a luxury hotel but a good hotel where people try really hard to make you feel good! For those of you who needs really good wi-fi, think twice!

マケレレ大学には便利です。

スタッフはフレンドリー、マケレレ大メインキャンパスには歩いて行けます。ホテルのイベント時はうるさいですが、なければ静か。これは運次第。徒歩圏内の近所に立派なレストランはありませんが、庶民的な定食屋はあります。周囲は夜には、暗くなるので、出歩くのは注意が必要です。ネットは各階にありますが、弱くて1階ロビーまで行く必要があるときもあります。

Convenient to Makerere U.

The hotel was OK. For the price, I really can't complain too much. If you need a working Wifi, you might have trouble, but generally it was fine.

Good environment except party

Breakfast is good, and room is clean. You can get one bottle of water for each stay. Bed is comfortable, and mosquito net is fair. It is near Makerere University, but cannot find any good restaurants, sightseeing places, and shops around. And one more thing, if there is a party in the garden, it is very noisy.
