Staff offered to get switch it with one from the next room. Asked why it was not replaced and was told the owners have been repeatedly told about but they were ignored. No ceiling fan only an a/c which is unsuitable on cold and rainy days or if you have dry skin and avoid using too much air-conditioning. Cracked loose ceramic tiles both in the room and entrance to the rooms. I made an online booking for a room with 3 single beds viewing picture on website. But on arrival l was told they no longer do online bookings and therrfore was forced to pay more than l bargained for by taking a family room. But it is walking distance from Galo if you dont mind using the short cut. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kishen Makanji 14 Jan 2021 ##### Kishen Makanji Stayed 1 night in Jan 2021 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels in South Woodham Ferrers](https://www.expedia.co.uk/South-Woodham-Ferrers-Hotels.d182645.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hilton Garden Inn Gaborone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gaborone-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Gaborone.h26893018.Hotel-Information) > - [Chobe River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kasane-Hotels-The-Garden-Lodge.h42055239.Hotel-Information) > - [Tashatha Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tutume-Hotels-Tashatha-Hotel.h35559088.Hotel-Information) > - [Xakanaka Mobile Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Xakanaxa-Hotels-Xakanaka-Mobile-Camp.h16060158.Hotel-Information) > - [Parkview Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maun-Hotels-Parkview-Hotel.h45863465.Hotel-Information) > - [Kings Palace Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palapye-Hotels-Kings-Palace-Guest-House.h23546559.Hotel-Information) > - [Mopiri Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gumare-Hotels-Mopiri-Camp.h41701239.Hotel-Information) > - [Sunbirds Lodge Chobe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kasane-Hotels-Chobe-Poolside-Suites.h45690105.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Japan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Japan.d89.Hotel-Destinations) > - [Thamo Telele](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maun-Hotels-Thamo-Telele.h90910374.Hotel-Information) > - [Chobe Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kasane-Hotels-Chobe-Safari-Lodge.h72523207.Hotel-Information) > - [Ditlhapi Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shakawe-Hotels-Ditlhapi-Guest-House.h16021933.Hotel-Information) > - [Jack's Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Central-Kalahari-Game-Reserve-Hotels-Jacks-Camp.h38534089.Hotel-Information) > - [Travelodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gaborone-Hotels-Travelodge.h12064519.Hotel-Information) > - [Muchenje Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngoma-Hotels-Muchenje-Safari-Lodge.h26697107.Hotel-Information) > - [Avani Gaborone Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gaborone-Hotels-Avani-Gaborone-Resort-Casino.h15281.Hotel-Information) > - [Cresta Riley's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maun-Hotels-Cresta-Rileys.h2270865.Hotel-Information) > - [Gweta Lodge ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gweta-Hotels-Gweta-Lodge.h99910158.Hotel-Information) > - [Kadizora Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Okavango-Delta-Hotels-Kadizora-Camp.h15988717.Hotel-Information) > - [Sedia Riverside Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maun-Hotels-Sedia-Riverside-Hotel.h42354371.Hotel-Information) > - [Nokanyana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maun-Hotels-Nokanyana.h54277924.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Lusaka (LUN) to Mfuwe (MFU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lun/mfu/lusaka-to-mfuwe) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Stockholm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Stockholm.d178311.Travel-Guide-Activities) > - [Things to do in Punta Prima](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Punta-Prima.d6049900.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### General ---
