Excellent Stay
pick-up services helpful staff excellent meals
The hotel offered pick-up services, convenient. Benson, a staff member, was particularly helpful . I found both the breakfast and other meals to be excellent (the buffet was fantastic).
Specifically, I did not even have hotel slippers, and I had to call reception to request them.
Facilities

The hotel features a spa, a pool, and polite staff members, all contributing to a pleasant experience. Citam Pentecostal Church services are also within walking distance. I recommend visiting on a Sunday.
Dining
10/10
The ground floor dining area creates an intimate atmosphere. I had steak cooked to perfection (medium rare) along with mashed potatoes. It was a savory and rich experience.

the staff was helpful when i needed assistance. this was acceptable.
My room was not the one i booked. the room faced the back and overlooked garbage containers. I expected a pool view as specified in my reservation. the restaurant prices were exorbitant, and the food quality did not justify the cost.
