Thé room we stayed in was basic. The front door didn’t close properly and the small fan in the room could only be turned on and off- no rotation or increase of speed. The padlock to lock the front door was difficult to close. No wi fi reception apart from near the reception area. The accommodation is a good 20 minutes walk from the town. You can catch taxi for US$5. To get access to drinking water you need to pay $5 to get a fob to water fountain around town. Everything is in cash here.

The place was really nice and quiet. Felt very secure. Only downside is that it is a bit out of the way from the main attractions and restaurants of Vic falls and require a taxi to and from.
