I found the hotel to be in a convenient location near a mini shopping mall in Gaborone and the staff provided excellent service. The rooms were well-decorated and cozy, but unfortunately, the bath was not working properly in the disused bedroom. The dining experience was satisfactory with healthy snacks available. Overall, a decent stay with a few minor setbacks.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable with a good view, and the staff provided excellent service. However, the issue with the bath not working properly was a downside. The location was convenient next to a shopping center, but the limited menu in the restaurant was disappointing.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but I wish they had firmer pillows. The service was top-notch, with the staff always ready to assist, from Front desk to Room service. The location was convenient, being next to a shopping center, but the dining options were limited to finger food only.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the room was spacious and had a nice couch, but unfortunately, the bathroom was not working properly. The service was excellent with the staff always ready to help, from the front desk to room service. The hotel's location near a mini shopping mall in Gaborone was convenient, making it easy to access public transport. However, the dining options were limited to fresh salads only.

I had a delightful stay at this hotel situated near a mini shopping mall in Gaborone. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with firm pillows and a good view. The service from the front desk to room service was exceptional, and the staff were always available to assist. The location was convenient, close to public transport for easy access to the city center. The only downside was the limited menu options in the restaurant.
