    Very good price, but requires transportation to go to town

    Breakfast was less than standard. Air condition didn't work during daytime.

    Price is very good, so you can hardly complain about anything. Laundry service is quick and also good price.

    The strict visa, the airport boat, the lack of cash machines, no ATMs, no mastercard, poor exchange rates in the country.

    Great location near the beach and with a restaurant and bars nearby. Cool spot in Freetown, Sierra Leone's capital.

    The window would not properly close allowing many mosquitoes In the room, as well As the air conditioner leaking when addressed with the staff the issue was not handled in a timely manner, and upon fixing the air conditioner the worker used the toilet brush to clean the filter which is unsanitary.

    The staff were quick to respond to questions and assisted with recommendations while at their lodge

    Cash only which made it difficult as ATM in the city mostly didn't accept foreign cards I wasn't told they accepted PayPal until I returned from spending half a day trawling ATM in the rain. They advertise in USD then have a standard rate of exchange which will rip you off Was about 10% more when I was there.

    Decently priced Has a supermarket across the street excepting credit cards Food on the roof is decent

    The fact that the staffs don’t communicate with each other about their guests is concerning. I had to explain myself more than three times (different dates) at the restaurant whenever we’re there to have breakfast which is included in the price. So to the owner: teach your staffs how to be more friendly with guests in the morning!

    Easily accessible and clean. The bed is comfortable. I’m happy I got back the deluxe double room with the suede beds because it is the best room :).

    Not on the beach but not too far away. Located on a main junction so make sure you have a quiet room.

    Really comfortable budget option in Freetown. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good food on site. Good location for getting around the city.

    The only thing I didn't like is that, the the WC in my room did not have the default plastic seat cover to make seating comfortable. I had to sit directly on the ceramic bowl of the WC which was discomforting.

    I like the location and staff. They are polite and and helpful. The staff are always on hand to assist you with your need.
