Best stay before going on Safari
I can summary my stay as AMAZING! It was way more than we thought, I think the photos here don't give the credit of the place, the staff was friendly food was delicious. It is so worth it, it is like 10 minutes from Ngorongoro gate and they can organize the safari to Ngorongoro as well.

기억에 남는 숙소
탄자니아 여행 중 인상적인 장소예요. 특히 수녀님들이 매우 친절하셔서 한 분 한 분이 마음에 따뜻한 기억으로 남아 있어요. 방은 침대가 크지 않아 매우 소박한 편이며, 수녀원 부지가 넓어서 주변의 농촌 풍경이 시원하게 펼쳐져 있고 평화로운 느낌을 줍니다. 숙박객 2명의 3끼 식사는 물론 운전사의 숙박 및 식사도 포함된 가격입니다. 다만, 와이파이가 방에서는 안 되고 로비에서만 됩니다.
