Reviews and Ratings
This hotel truly surprised me with its ideal location and friendly staff. The rooms were spotless and cozy, but the dining experience left something to be desired with limited options. The pool area was a highlight, well-kept and a great place to unwind. The overall value for money was good, although there were additional charges for Wi-Fi.
The hotel's location was quiet being off the main boulevard, yet central and close to various restaurants in Kinshasa. The rooms had internally facing views and decent hot water pressure, but the toilets had occasional water issues. The equipment in the rooms was satisfactory, offering a comfortable stay. The service left something to be desired, with an awkward incident in the lobby and an overall impression of expecting something in return despite subpar service. The location was rated highly due to its peaceful surroundings and being in the city center. The dining experience included live music on Wednesdays but lacked variety in the offerings. The hotel's facilities were acceptable, catering to basic needs. The value for money was a bit questionable. Despite some drawbacks, it was a decent stay overall.
The hotel is located off a main boulevard, ensuring a quiet stay yet close to the downtown area. The rooms have good hot water pressure and decent equipment, but some issues with water in the toilets. The service was a mix of friendly staff throughout, but with some odd interactions, and the dining with live music was a nice touch. The facilities provided a pleasant experience overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was convenient and quiet, but the lack of proper water pressure and internally facing views in the rooms were disappointing. The service was intrusive at times, and the dining experience did not live up to expectations. However, the facilities were decent overall.
