Please people support this venue!
Pros:

Good morning Cresta Lodge - Gaborone Team
Hope you're keeping well today.
Thank you for an unforgettable time spent there, the 1 on 1 service from Masendu during my breakfast experience was absolutely amazing! He was leading me from the reception to the breakfast hall, making sure I have coffee and everything was in order till I left. Highly recommended to visit there, a compliment to the rest of the staff as well for their welcoming service.
