    efficient housekeeping
    dirty corridors

    The housekeeping was efficient, ensuring our room was tidy throughout our stay.

    The carpets in the corridors were dirty with obvious stains from neglect, making the hotel feel run-down.

    friendly staff

    Just a reliable pick for a couple of nights in Addis Ababa with great value for the money. The staff were friendly and helped me when I needed to print a last-minute document for my flight. Make sure to confirm any late checkout policies at the front desk before your departure.

    comfortable bed
    filling breakfast
    courteous staff
    unclean room
    stained furniture
    broken fixtures

    Checking in was a bit chaotic. It took around 20 minutes, with three different staff members involved. If another guest arrived, they got sidetracked and left us waiting. The room didn’t meet expectations. Furniture looked stained and old. The bathroom had a broken light, a dirty shower that was missing parts, and loose taps. Water even stopped while showering. However, I found the bed comfortable and enjoyed the breakfast, which was pretty filling. We received daily bottled water, a nice touch. Despite the friendly staff, the room conditions made it hard to overlook. It really felt like refurbishment was overdue, especially given the standard I was hoping for.

    clean bed
    good internet

    Recommend it for solo travelers

    The bed was clean and the internet was surprisingly good which helped me catch up on work while on the go. The breakfast was filling with a basic buffet that kept me fueled for the day ahead.

    It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable.

    comfortable bed
    good breakfast
    chaotic check-in
    outdated furniture

    I really loved the comfortable bed and the good breakfast they offered. 🛏️ Though, the chaotic check-in process took some time and wasn't the best experience.

    tasty food
    top-notch service

    Chef TiTi!

    The food was super tasty! Chef TiTi really makes sure you’re happy with your meal. The portions are good. The a la carte lunch is affordable, and the service by Tirunesh is top-notch. The room had a flat-screen TV and a minibar, but no air conditioning. Bottled water was provided daily, which was cool.

    The location was handy, making it easy for our large family to explore nearby attractions. The staff were warm and helpful, particularly during breakfast when they catered to our needs, making sure we were comfortable and satisfied with the meal options.
