poor almost terrible experience
the hotel was really poor for what it advertises. the room is old and the furniture looks like it has not been refreshed in ages. the whole hotel is very old. location is great though. but was really bad was that the wifi is capped at 250 megs per day, which you reach in five minutes of use, and then no more wifi - and they advertise free wifi! same for breakfast, you gotta pay for a cappuccino. so overall given the price, not to be recommended, justo go to backpackers place same service but much cheaper!

Overpriced and should not 4 star rating. The property is in need of upgrading. Furniture and fittings are showing much wear and tear. Did not come into contact with staff apart from checking in and out so cannot comment on service.

Lovely view in good location
Located handily for the most popular spot in Wilderness (map of Africa viewpoint) you get lovely views of the ocean dron the lodges. Also close to decent restaurants and seemed to be a safe enough area to walk about in.
