I had a decent stay at this hotel, with clean and spacious rooms that made it comfortable for my extended visit. The location is excellent, right by Bole Road and close to the airport, which was really convenient. However, I was a bit let down by the dining options, as the food didn’t quite meet international standards. Overall, it offers great value for money, but there are areas that need improvement.
