I enjoyed my stay at Chresta Lodge. I would book to stay there again.
Pros:

I was with family and I was given two comfortable rooms that accomodated my three children myself and my wife. I also liked the food especially the traditional Botswana dish, I will be driving back to Botswana just for the meal.
