Super neat and comfy room and bathroom. WiFi worked very well. Restaurant on property (I recommend planning meals + the menu in advance). Kitchen available for use. Had patio seating too. Used their laundry services. Security is very good. Property quite easy to find. Staff is very friendly. Fred and Winnie, the owners, are very hospitable. Less than 100 m from the property we would hire boda bodas (motorbike taxis).

Every thing is perfect Everything was excellent and the host was very excellent and his treatment was sophisticated and responsive in anything we needed. It was a wonderful experience. I advise anyone with a family traveling to Kampala to stay in this area. The location overlooks the lake from the sixth floor, Apartment 45. A wonderful experience. The location is safe for families and children and there are guards all day long and all the staff are friendly.
