The location was great, walking distance to Vic falls and plenty of restaurants and local markets. Rooms were spacious and beds were extremely comfortable.

Booked a double bed but when arrived, it was twin beds. Had to request twice before this was resolved.
Nice accommodation walking distance from Victoria Falls national park, shops and restaurants. Most activities can also conveniently be booked via the accommodation

As our room was quite far away, the wifi wasn't that strong in the room itself, but good everywhere else on the property
Fairly good structure with a nice pool and very nice rooms.

Staff not up to par. Many people but low level. They had made me pay a lower bill, then they came back to make me pay the rest - so far so good. But a. it was their fault and b. paid more but I also had dinner included without indicating that the menu would be greatly reduced. My partner was allergic and they treated us - even though we paid much more - as unwanted guests.
