4/10 Fair

I was miss lead, they told me they gave me an upgrade at no cost. The next morning I woke up with 2 inches of water all over the room. I had to call to be moved to an other room, the room was the same it is not an upgrade!! It was very difficult to get a gluten free meal. Most had no idea what is gluten.

This property is beautiful, quiet, and has the most amazing spa. Terrific massage. The facilities are lovely, the food is great, and the manager (Ally is his name, but I might not be spelling it correctly) is beyond belief - very attentive, thoughtful, friendly and kind. I travel through Mwanza once or twice a year, and always book a relaxing layover here for me and my groups.

The set up of the property is amazing but not physically friendly for challenged guests as a lot of staircase up and down and limited lifts in certain areas only.Have to improve a lot on their restaurants the food is of very poor qualities for a beautiful place like that and expensive!.
