Fantastic location, the shared rooms actually have AC so should update the listing! Great to have food on site available after a long day of exploring, friendly staff, would recommend if you need a budget stay.

The on-site Cafe and bar is excellent. The breakfast, pizzas and milkshakes are delicious. Rooms have extremely comfortable beds. The location is amazing, a few minute's walk will lead you to nearby mall, shops, as well as the Falls. Great staff! And safety is excellent.
