The property is conveniently located near the Riverwalk Mall. The service is great, restaurant food was amazing, the drinks at the bar were great. The room was cleaned very well everyday for the week I was there and the staff were friendly. It was definitely good value for my money.

I booked this property for my wife. The facilities were acceptable but the service was quite poor. It seems the front desk needs proper training. They could not find her Orbitz booking at check-in for a long time and did not apologise. It happened again at check-out. Overall it seemed like they were not well trained for the hospitality industry. There are better options in Gaborone.

My room was lovely and very spacious. I had a king size mattress which troubled me as the sheet didn’t fit properly and there was no mattress protector. Other than that it had everything you would need even a bar fridge. The bathroom was very clean with extra lighting.
