Ruhige Unterkunft, perfekt um in Livingstone zu entspannen mit allem was man braucht um die Ecke.
Pros:

Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hatte viel Zeit um uns den Aufenthalt sehr angenehm zu machen. Danke an den Koch für die Suppe und danke an das Personal für den schönen Ausflug an die Victoriafälle. Die Location liegt in einer ruhigen Gegend. Der Spar ist gleich um die Ecke. Man kann sich gut am Pool entspannen. Die neuen Zimmer sind sehr schön.

Cons:

Die älteren Zimmer benötigen eine Renovierung.

Pros:

The rooms were air conditioned and the shower had warm water available with very good pressure. Staff were helpful

Cons:

The decor was outdated and some windows didn't close and had no burglar bars, so I didn't feel very safe

The Lodge is very good.
Pros:

The breakfast was very good indeed. However, there is room for improvement on the provision of towels of every size and an alarm clock is needed. While the mosquito net is provided, there is need for mosquitoes sprays.

Cons:

I did not like the mosquitoes.

Not worth it.
Pros:

The location is very close to the Livingstone Museum and downtown, which is nice. The staff are very helpful.

Cons:

The rooms were definitely outdated. The swimming pool was very dirty and doesn't reflect the pictures shown. The breakfast left MUCH to be desired.

We were told the hotel had HOT water by the reception, only to find out there is no running water in the rooms when load shedding is in effect. Then they said we would have hot water once the generator was running; we get back from dinner and inquire again and were told there was "warm" water for the showers... It was ice cold. After a 2 day safari in Botswana, all my travelling companion and I wanted to do was have a hot shower to wash the bush dust/sweat off. We were given buckets of hot water instead and had to make do with that.

Friendly staff and comfortably stay
Pros:

The nicest staff work here! Very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Breakfast was tasty and the hotel is a short walk from the main road. The bar area was nice and the staff put on the game we wanted to watch. Good value. I would stay here again.

Advise the facility to prioritise hygiene. Infections are all over and can hit anytime.
Pros:

It is not far from most attractions.

Cons:

Cleanliness is not their style. Coffee mugs were dirty and they did not have detergents when requested so we can personally wash the mugs. Meals were served late and the food was not good at all. Staff looked and sounded new, they were always apologetic instead of providing better service. Air conditioner was not working. Had it been possible, we would have moved immediately.

Nice place for a short stay
Pros:

The room was large and included mosquito nets for the bed. The included breakfast was hot (eggs and toast) and the pool was refreshing and clean. The property is within easy walking distance of the museum and a local curio market for souvenirs but not close to the falls. There is laundry service on the property for a fee.

Cons:

The electricity load shedding seemed to affect the internet and the ability of the card reader to take our card for payments. They have a backup generator but it didn't seem to help the card reader problem.
