There has been good improvements with this facility. The kitchen is not anything to talk about, but the worst part is that the wifi don't work properly. After numerous complaints it is clear that management do care about this. It is highly frustrated as we live in era where wifi is part of our every day lives. I will gladly change the report when this matter has been resolved.

No TV, awful shower, best you understand French or best be Congolese or you will be squeezed out. Rude people and kitchen not possible to use nicely. TERRIBLE place. To add..The owner approached me in the street questioning my review. These people are beyond repair. Never stay here. Forgot to say how rude the reception woman is...they also barge into rooms whether you are getting changed or not. Even Yoghurt has more culture. You also cannot use the filthy kitchen (be grateful) as this is rented out to another rude Congalese who uses a braai outside for some other lunch crowd and I never saw it get cleaned. SIS. I feel itchy when I think of this dump.
