Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location is excellent, in a quiet and safe place between the lake and the forest, still in a walking distance of the village. The garden is full of wonderful birds and beautiful flowers. The staff was nice and sometimes very helpful. Hotel finds ways to adapt to the situations, like when a big group came, we were not forgotten and they served us dinner in good conditions, near the group on the lake beach.
Negative: Sometimes the service was a bit approximate, like at the restaurant when we order something and get something else, not always with the right information of what it is really. The bar charges a lot for coffee and even for hot water, which we didn't know before receiving the bill at the end. The swimming pool, in the middle of the restaurant, is not at a place where it would feel very comfortable to swim.
Summary: a relaxing place to enjoy Lake Nalubaale
