We were greatly disappointed with our stay at this location. Upon arrival, if the language wasn't a barrier and we had another option, we would have left immediately. There was no Zessa electricity every day that we were there and had to use the limited solar power available. We didn't have use of the microwave at all. There was NO washer and dryer as the listing stated. there was NO safe onsite to secure our valuables as the listing stated. There was no security as the property manager asked us to keep the kitchen door unlocked in case she needed to gain access to the solar/electric system, which she did OFTEN! She came over/inside nearly every day for one reason or another. She was a lovely person, but we didn't enjoy the lack of privacy which was claimed in the VRBO listing. The unit was old and the furniture was outdated and uncomfortable. The listing claimed that a King bed was available, but it was a full size bed. There was NO regulator on the hot water so it went from cold to scalding whenever you turned it on! Every shower was a gymnastics routine as you jumped from side to side trying to avoid getting burned by the hot water. I understand we were in Africa, but I suspect that "something" was living inside the fireplace because every night we heard sounds from it. Bugs were everywhere in the house each night and dear hubby told me after we returned home of seeing two lizards inside on separate occasions. I saw one, which was small, but I didn't sleep well that night.
