::On arrival they didn't have WiFi throughout the lodge. As one staff explained, the owner hadn't paid for the WiFi bill. This was fine for the first night as we had our own data and did intend to leave the next morning. When it came to breakfast, we each were given a single fired egg, three spoons of beans and two fried rings of onion with toast bread. When we requested for butter for the toast, they said they didn't have butter at all, only Jam. When we requested for sausages we were told it would coast extra, however they said it would be a while as they didn't have any in the kitchen and would have to go out and buy. Only Coffee was offered and one of the people in our party didn't drink coffee so had to ask for tea. As we were in Livingstone for two nights only, we rebooked only for convenience. That evening on return from the Falls, we arrived to no water in our rooms due to what was described as a water pump failure, so we couldn't use the toilets or shower that evening. The next morning, we didn't have water either but a chat with reception they turned on the pump and we had water for few minutes to shower before we checked out. We got a complimentary breakfast (two fried eggs, beans, sausages, toast and butter), and a refund for the inconvenience caused. Overall, the rooms were clean and is in a good location. They resolved the issue to our satisfaction. Would we stay there again? We would give it a try again in the near future.

::If you are on a low budget nice place to stay, would I go back? Probably not, staff nice breakfast okay no juice though or a bottle of water in the fridge to start with. It's a great location the owner should pay attention to details very disappointed with the pool

::Great for people travelling on a budget and in big groups as they have rooms from as low as K350 and can sleep up to 3 individuals. The staff however rarely changed things such as towels or thoroughly cleaned rooms everyday. Breakfast took a while to get ready (maybe it’s because we were a big group) but I did order some dinner which I had to wait for 3 hours. The manager is a very nice lady and she will assist with whatever you require. The lodge is in a good location as it is in close proximity to everything such as restaurants, airport and the falls. Another thing I loved about it is that there were hardly any restrictions as with most places, we could sit by the pool and play games and music up to whatever time because Livingstone is definitely a party!

::It's definitely not a 5 star resort and for this reason we walked in with humble expectations. We stayed in one of the family rooms (unit 8). The beds are good, mosquito nest are provided and you also have 24/7 security (guard, gate and wall). However, the bathroom was disappointing... Th door had no lock/key (which was a bit of a necessity coz we travelled as a group. The shower curtain was mouldy. It got cleaned after I complained about it) Other things to consider, it's a walkable distance from the town centre, has a restaurant and a little pool. Would I go back? Probably not.... BUT if you are on a tight budget and cannot find a better place for you the same coin, it should do the the job.

::Nice and quiet place to stay. Price is fine for locals however pricey for foreigners. Good ambiance but rooms are run down and in need of a facelift. Bathrooms need a major overhaul. The room I stayed in had a blocked drainage, loose power point and inadequate lighting. The pool is unsightly and needs a coat of paint. Food was surprisingly good with adequate portions. Overall if the rooms are worked on I would not mind going back to stay there.
