Pros:

Die Lodge liegt sehr schรถn direkt am See. Morgens kommen die Fischer sehr frรผh singend in den Hafen. Das ist sehr schรถn...man muss ja nicht aufstehen. Wir hatten einen netten Kajaktour zur hoteleigenen Insel. Das Frรผhstรผck war sehr reichhaltig, die Belegschaft sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Die Beleuchtung im Bungalow war sehr dรผster, ebenso an der Rezeption. Eine Taschenlampe ist empfehlenswert.

Lieu sympathique, personnel adorable mais hรดtel rustique et restaurant catastrophique
Pros:

Le personnel, et Emmanuel en particulier qui a รฉtรฉ adorable. La proximitรฉ avec le lac Kivu et le petit dรฉjeuner sur la plage.

Cons:

La proximitรฉ avec la route et le bruit consรฉcutif. La mauvaise isolation phonique.
La restauration, une vrais catastrophe.

Worthy staying at for vacation
Pros:

The nature and environment

Cons:

The place is nice but the bed nets not comfortable. And the bedโ€™s screws should be tightened.
