Wonderful place to stay at! Monique and Norbert go out of their way to make you feel at home. Clean and neat room and bathroom and Monique and Norbert are always around to help you plan your trip. Norbert is also an excellent guide and the walk we did with him to the twin lakes was really great! If you want to see Rwanda with a local and really get a glimpse into the life of a Rwandan family, do not hesitate to book this place.

The host is realy friendly and welcoming. He also works in the local tourism and thus knows great places to visit apart from the gorilla trekking. Our car broke down the morning we wanted to leave and he was a great help with getting the right mechanics.

It's really more of a homestay, which I personally appreciated. The host helped me with an excellent last minute trip to the twin lakes on the day of arrival and the two lovely girls working there took excellent care of me during the entire stay. Delicious breakfast and outstanding dinner. Secure parking and as a bonus a lovely dog (stays outside, well groomed, likes pets but is okay if you don't feel like it). All in all, highly recommended!

If you are looking for luxury hotels go somewhere else but if it is authenticity that you want, you found the right spot. We woke up with the view over all of the volcanoes, the place is simple but lovely. Situated near a village where you can easily go for a walk. Olivier made our stay very special with his kindness and sweet attentions ( fire, blankets, hot tea ..) and Michael is doing everything he can to organise our stay ( car with driver, paperwork for the parcs, advices ... ) The breakfast is stunning with fresh fruits and pretty view . The dinner plate is huge ! Can't recommend more .

Excellent accommodation, and was kept very clean. The staff were all very friendly and super helpful. They really know how to look after their guests with the extra touches such as cleaning our boots and car - this was greatly appreciated. Breakfast was also good. I will definitely return to stay here next time I'm in the area!
