Not more than a 3 stars hotel. Needs renovation. In the evening there was some party at the bar and it was very noisy.

It is my favourite hotel in Maputo good rate for good service. I would like to recommend Expedia more transparency in pricing. In the web page it appears that VIP rate includes breakfast, but in the morning you discover that it doesn't . Is better to correct the web page. I am not so much keen of having huge breakfast in the morning but I don't like to be remembered by the waiters that my rate doesn't include it. Thank you

Hotel room wasn’t clean. The shower hard mould on the tiles and the shower head was covered in scale. Only a few of the shower head holes let the water through. The room had a sickly smell of wet/damp carpet. The room service was poor after 10pm. It came from the bar and is at best poor snacks. The breakfast wasn’t great but ok at a push. The reception staff were good and the bar looked decent.

Good!
Good and reasonably priced hotel. The internet is great in the lobby but not so great in the rooms. The hotel restaurant has limited options but good restaurants are located within walking distance.
