I used this hostel for a solo backpacking trip. When I stayed, there didn't seem to be any other solo travelers, so I had the room all to myself. The staff were kind and polite, and the cleanliness was standard for a dormitory. Details are as follows: Wi-Fi was only available around the reception area, not in the rooms. The showers had hot water. I visited in April, and there were a lot of mosquitoes in the shower room, which was a bit disappointing. Waking up the next morning to a large spider on my pillow was a little scary, but I guess that's typical of Africa, haha. There's no air conditioning in the room, and the fans on each bed don't work, so I think it would be hot in the summer. There's a tap with drinkable water, which was convenient. The location is perfect, and they'll store your luggage in a lockable room. The staff here were very kind and wonderful, but there was one disappointing incident regarding another guest. This isn't related to the hostel itself, so I haven't included it in the rating. It's just a warning for other guests. During my stay, a traveler from Namibia, around 40 years old, approached me and we exchanged greetings. Then, without even much conversation, this person subjected me to sexual harassment that I don't want to write about here, and continued to make sexual advances afterward. No matter how many times I refused or ignored him, he kept going. There was only Wi-Fi at the reception, so I had to use it minimally before returning to my room. I was terrified of what would happen if he followed me to my room at night or ambushed me in the shower room. I considered talking to the staff, but I was afraid that he would become enraged if the staff intervened, so I ended up not saying anything. While there's always a possibility of encountering such people in a dormitory, it was truly disgusting. He said he uses this place often, so please be careful.

The location is fantastic, and the views over the river make it a great place to dine or have a drink. This is not a luxury resort but some of the prices suggest it is. On the other hand, the staff in the restaurant and Ricki at reception were world class, attentive and professional.

The room is ”tired”, but it has everything you need: a refrigerator, a kettle, a safe. Of the toiletries, however, there is only soap. The hotel staff are friendly. We had an unusual situation: we did not have local currency, and the hotel did not have an exchange office, dollars and euros were not accepted. The staff offered to feed us dinner on credit, but this was unacceptable for us, so we dined on the remains of breakfast. Then the next evening, apparently deciding that guests can lose weight from hunger, they gave us dinner. Thank you for the unexpected service! The portions are large, the food is delicious.

This hotel is located in the center of Livingstone, across the road is a large supermarket Sprit, and there are some restaurants and shops around, which is very convenient. The hotel room is small, but very clean, the wifi signal is well covered, the garden lawn inside is very well maintained, I like it very much. It was 8 o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the hotel. The hotel staff was very kind and upgraded our room. Thank you very much! This is a good hotel worth recommending.

An absolute gem! The owner, Chantal, is very involved in overseeing the day-to-day maintenance and it shows. They were extremely accommodating - we had an outdoor camper trailer which they allowed us to park and connect to electricity. All the staff are super friendly and polite. The rooms are tastefully decorated/designed and the bed was vey comfy. Beautiful outdoor pool and bar. Can’t recommend highly enough!! Only 2 suggestions for improvement: 1) A signpost is desperately needed on the main road and T-junction to show where the place is. 2) Put a hairdryer in the room.

The environment is good, but unfortunately there is not a lot of water in the lake during the dry season. The diet is mainly western food, and you can also taste fish and shrimp in the lake. The local staple food ”Sima” is also available.

Quiet place situated in a secure area.Roads are gravel but manageable even with an ordinary vehicle. Staff very helpful,great service too.
