Pros:

Quietness (SHHHHH Sign) which was good for concentration and peaceful sleep. Cleanliness of the rooms and the surrounding places. Complimentary breakfast was good

Cons:

It took long when checking in and not being advised of what the challenge was. I just figured out that they could not print the check in form after overhearing the conversation.

Excellent service, spotless rooms, and fast internet.
Pros:

Breakfast is customized to individual tastes and preferences, and it is prepared professionally. The location is truly stunning and perfect for training, although it is somewhat distant from town for trainees relying on public transport. Overall, I received outstanding services during my stay.

Cons:

I didn't like that cash isn't accepted, particularly for the Kwacha, as a non-Malawian.
