This was a beautiful property and stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. Despite the ongoing construction and frequent power outages (the generators or supply quickly kicked in each time) it was a great place to stay.

The management team were very professional and welcoming. I am very impressed by the excellent service I received. I was given a free upgrade and the one bedroom apartment was exclusive. This is one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in Freetown and will definitely revisit it. I highly recommend it- Allain keep up the excellent and outstanding hospitality.
