"Stayed for 2 nights before we left on our gorilla safari. Was a good place with a nice pool. Great value for money with nice outlook over the golf course. Breakfast was good and the staff super friendly. Teddy the hotel dog is lovely. Shower pressure excellent and plunger coffee in the room. Only downside was no fan or AC in room. Air got a bit hot in the middle of the night."
