Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Good, polite staff.
Spoke with the manager who was also very nice, polite and attentive, however the hotel itself is in quite poor shape.
The rooms were spacious but in bad condition.
If you are just looking for a place to rest your head then it may be an option but I wouldn't recommend it, I feel there are better options and value for money within Lilongwe.
