Pros:

An amazing support and hospitality staff. They took care to facilitate access to a pharmacy when one of our party was ill; stored our luggage while we traveled to Lalibela; hailed safe transportation for local shopping; and resolved a conflict when on-site visitors did not accept credit cards. Small imperfections can be noticed in furniture, curtains, or other decor that did not impact the stay. This is a really great place to stay for a moderate price.

Property needs a lot of improvement
Pros:

I got a roll that had a bad smell in the bathroom. No AC but a small portable fan which was not effective at all.
I changed rooms and the smell was less but still there in the bathroom. Elevator went off and had to struggle with luggage downstairs.
Generally not a pleasant stay.

Remontti tekisi hyvää
Pros:

Yövyn tässä hotellissa usein koska sen sijainti on sopiva. Yöpymishinta ei ole tasapainossa huoneen laadun kanssa. Keskustassa voi yöpyä samaan hintaan paremmassa hotellissa. Kehityskohteita hotellissa olisi paljon. Esim sänky ja petivaatteet, seuraavaksi kylpyhuone ja huoneen ulkoovi.

Pros:

Pros: Great customer service. Rooms are equipped with the latest technology. Good view. Fair price.

Cons The food sucker releases unpleasant smell in the hallway and rooms closer to the hallway window to the right side. There is also bad smell in the bathrooms. Also avoid rooms facing the street. The widows are not insulated. You might face power outage as their generator does work on full capacity.
