God awful.
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Misleading in the worst ways. Booked a room that said it had a bathtub, balcony, king size bed, additional hot tub. Literally none of it was true. I guess except for the bed. Ridiculously misleading advertising and poor response.

Good value compared to other places in Uganda I’ve been to
Pros:

Water pressure in the shower was good. The “on demand” water heater worked.

Cons:

The area was VERY noisy. The general standard was not what you’d expect for that price anywhere else in the world.
