8/10 Good
"I had a nice stay! The location is perfect if you want to stay right downtown to visit iconic places like the Catedral Nossa Senhora da Conceição (Sé Catedral de Maputo), Conselho Municipal, Casa de Ferro, Rádio Moçambique, etc.It is definitely not a luxury place, but it is a cozy, highly affordable, and secure spot to sleep. My room was entirely clean, the bed was nice, and they provided the basic essentials like shampoo and soap. There is also a small, convenient café and restaurant right near the reception area, and the security on-site made me feel very safe.The cleaners and all of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my time there. The property could definitely be improved if they did a revamp of the furniture and the toilets, as the interior is a bit outdated. I also felt the complimentary breakfast could be better. It is currently heavily focused on a Chinese clientele, serving items like noodles and a watery soup. I was expecting a little more local variety—like fresh fruit, cheese, ham, and a toaster to toast bread. However, because it is free, you just have to expect the basics… Overall, it was a wonderful, budget-friendly experience and I would definitely stay here again! And thanks for the early check in!"
