Clean and good value stay close to the main road in Kenema

Breakfast was good but 7.30 rather late for those on business travel

Restaurant service was rather slow at lunchtime and evenings, especially long wait to bring the bill

The breakfast was good and was timely. I truly enjoyed my time at the Paloma guest house. The staff members were so humble and responsible.

At room 89, I experienced some bad orders coming into the room from the bathroom. That could be a mistake from the plumbing work. Please visit.

The staff were excellent - some of the best customer service I have had in Sierra Leone. Everyone was friendly, professional, and very kind. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and all items were in working order (AC, water heater). The food was wonderful and timely, too!

There were not negative aspects to our stay. The only thing I could recommend is a sign along the main road for direction for those who have never been to the area :)

The Paloma is one of relatively few comfortable places in Kenema. The rooms are satisfactory and the food is good. The staff are all very friendly.

My main concern was the payment arrangements. Because we had booked through Booking.com, we had a 15% surcharge added to our bill, which was a large amount as I was paying for 4 colleagues. So next time we will book directly with the Paloma and not through Booking.com. I know that such surcharges are added at other hotels and guest houses in Sierra Leone. The other problem was the very unreliable credit card payment facility. My credit cards would not work in the hotel machines, so we had great difficulty trying to find the cash to pay our bill. This was both frustrating and rather stressful.

The workers, especially at the reception and restaurant.

The room was a bit less than advertised.

Good secure and clean place, polite and helpful staff. Good value for money
