Pros:

Gute Lage in der Nähe von Lake Kivu, Personal sehr freundlich, Frühstück auch ok

Cons:

Die Abrechnung mit VisaCarte, ich dachte es wird automatisch abgebucht aber der Menager hat mir erklärt , dass es nicht so ist, ich soll die Rechnung bezahlen da vor Ort wobei als Er das umgerechnet hat mit Rwf, war es 15€ teurer als bei Booking stand!Nach eine lange Diskusion habe ich aber die 15 €zurückbekommen

Great Location, But Falls Short on Basics
Pros:

The location is excellent, just a short walk from the beach and some of the best bars and restaurants. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the hillside suites are clean and spacious.

Cons:

The breakfast is very basic, limited to eggs, potatoes, bread, and margarine; which feels underwhelming. Surprisingly, the suites (their priciest rooms) don’t have Wi-Fi, which is quite disappointing.
