    Wonderful apartment, two bedrooms and the entire upstairs area to yourself. Clean and neat. Walking distance from the Huye bus station and right opposite the Ethnographic museum. Very convenient place. Also, Mr Stany is very friendly and informative.

Stany
Stany's Apartment is located opposite the ethnographic museum. This place is ideal for people who like peace and intimacy as well as space at home, because it has as much as 90 m2. It consists of 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a large corridor and patio where you can work and a private staircase. Stan will help you with all your needs: from renting a car, to getting a lift into town, choosing restaurants or connecting with the people you are looking for. Stany's Apartment is very easy to reach and is situated at the entrance to Butare. 10 min walk to the city in a charming and quiet district or along the main road. mas 3 minutes to the bus station, which is adjacent to the museum. If you don't like walking, you can catch a motorbike. Private accommodation offers a separate entrance, peace and no neighborhood. The host lives next door and you can order breakfast from him or buy excellent coffee from his own plantation. We can also organise full trip program for your group.
I am an engineer and I am also engaged in small farming, therefore I offer you great coffee from my plantation. I speak French, Swahili, Russian, Polish and English. I can help you organize your entire stay in the city and recommend the services you are looking for. I've lived here for over 20 years. Be my guest! I invite you to our spacious apartment
Butare is a great base for trips to the Nyungwe rainforest, Congo and Burundi, as well as to the site of the Marian apparitions of Kibeho. The university city is very friendly and offers some nice restaurants, a very lively ethnographic museum opposite our house and other interesting entertainment. From the station you have a maximum of 5 minutes to our house.
