Gorgeous hotel and lovely small pool and pool bar. Great location to get into town or beach. The staff could not gave been friendlier or more helpful. I felt they all became friends -- from the house keepers to bar staff, receptionists and managers. Highly recommended. I will return here on my next visit

I really liked the location of the property. It was easily accessible by public transportation at any time of the day and because of the location, you can feel safe taking public transportation even at late hours of the night. The staff there were excellent and very attentive and pleasant. Every single staff there was incredible. One thing that I did not like was the fact that every guest had to stop at the front desk and wait for the staff to call up to the room before they could come upstairs. I think this is a bit invasive to someone's privacy. As long as the person knows what room or suite they're going to, they should be allowed to just go upstairs. Not every guest wants everyone to know who is coming to visit them. I don't believe people are just randomly walking into hotels from the street if they don't know who they are coming to visit. I personally, would like to see this changed.

I didn't get the room that I booked at first and was put in an apartment off site of the hotel. They did however get me moved over as soon as they could. We did get in trouble for swimming after hours, but we had not seen any signs on the hours the pool was open. Overall, a great place to stay because the staff is amazing. They have been there for several years and tend to remember you. A very nice touch. Plus they will go over and above to make your stay good.

If you are tired of the 'sameness' of the usual chain hotels this is a good option. A smaller hotel within a short ride of the hustle bustle of Lumley and the beach. Nice sized rooms which are well appointed. Competitive rates. Distant sea views. The staff are very friendly and work hard to make your stay a pleasant one. A special mention for Elizabeth who appears to be the 'problem solver' at the property. A great place to relax after a busy day.

On a noisy intersection but closing the windows helps significantly. Staff are very friendly but the quality of the included breakfast could be improved.

Great hotel and great experience. My only qualm was the fee they charged me for transport from the airport to my hotel (you may be aware you need to take a boat into Freetown); service was said to be 'VIP' but I ended up waiting for more than an hour for my boat to come while the passengers I passed by in the queue surpassed me on their boats. The boat is $40 each way and the hotel charged me $120 each way (3x the already expensive boat ride price). Once I found out the price relative to the service that was offerred (my secretary booked it), I cancelled the return. The accepted after a bit of back and forth. So definitely arrange your own transport.

Nothing wrong to say about this hotel. The owner of the hotel is so nice, she let us take a shower while we were leaving at midnight and checked out on the morning already. Possibility to buy tickets for the speed boat to reach the airport. Perfect hotel, location, food, services.

Impressed and thoroughly satisfied with service provided and attention given to details and personal needs of guests. The front desk management and staff were very helpful and polite, and willing to go the extra mile to make me as their guest comfortable and satisfied. I also found the premises well secured and the surroundings safe; guarantied supply of electricity and water; and adequate staff complement to ensure that the hotel remains clean and spotless at all times and that things work well.
