I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and had a nice basic setup with a view of the volcano, but there was a musty smell and buzzing insects around my head all night. The service was pleasant and helpful, but there was an unbearable bad odor in the room. The location was convenient for visiting the national park and having dinner at the Volcana Lounge nearby. The dining experience was average, and the facilities were decent.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, although lacking mosquito nets and having some buzzing insects around, were small yet clean. The service provided was friendly, although there was an unpleasant odor. The location was convenient for gorilla trekking and dining at the nearby Volcana Lounge. The dining experience was acceptable, and the facilities were satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although clean, had a little musty smell that bothered me, and the absence of a mosquito net resulted in an annoying buzzing from insects throughout the night. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and tidy, offering a comfortable stay. The service was pleasant and helpful, allowing me to enjoy the amenities the hotel had to offer. The location proved to be convenient for my plans, being a good starting point for my gorilla adventure and in close proximity to a fantastic dining spot. However, I found the old-style TV and lack of control over the AC to be drawbacks of the location. Dining was satisfactory, with good options available for my gorilla trek. The facilities were decent, but improvements could be made to enhance the overall experience. Despite some minor flaws, the value for money was acceptable.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were small but clean with plenty of hot water; however, they were dark and lacked mosquito nets, leading to a buzzing night's sleep. The service was attentive, especially for arranging activities like the gorilla trek, but the price for some services was a downside. The location was convenient for exploring the national park and dining at the Volcana Lounge nearby. The dining was hit or miss, with some meals being good and others falling short. The facilities were decent but could be improved.
