Good clean property. Big rooms. But the area is poor. No shops or restaurant around. Unsafe to walk around. the arena mall is too far about 20 minutes away by walk. It looks close but it is not.

Always a great stay in mestil. Can genuinely be a home away from home. Beautiful buildings and garden with lots of great amenities. Away from the hustle and bustle of Kampala but easy access to all areas. Highly recommended.
