    The apartment was brilliant - exactly the location I needed (I wanted to stay in Bukoto area), very quiet and secure (extremely safe), with all the facilities advertised. Perfect for my stay in Kampala. The host Victor was excellent at communicating (WhatsApp) and sent perfect directions. The security/manager Isaac was always on hand if needed and was very nice. All in all I can thoroughly recommend.

    Breakfast was superb- lots of choice and fresh fruit and yoghurt serves alongside it. I arrived late and night and not feeling very well and the staff were so accommodating and very kind. They looked after me well and I'm really grateful for that. The hotel is in a quiet location but easy to get to from Kampala and the airport. Pool is also great.

    The stay was perfect. Fred and Winnie are great hosts. I arrived without my luggage and they asked me if I needed things and bought me some necessities. The setting is very beautiful, the house very secure, it is quite far from the center of Kampala which allows you to be quiet. Do not hesitate to book. Looking forward to returning to your beautiful home.
