It was a perfect and very interesting stay at the family of Monica, Norbert and their small girl Randa. I learned a lot of the rwandan culture and ate the best food i've ever eaten in Rwanda. Thanks also for planning the whole tour to Virunga Nationalpark! Hope to see you again one day.

The host is realy friendly and welcoming. He also works in the local tourism and thus knows great places to visit apart from the gorilla trekking. Our car broke down the morning we wanted to leave and he was a great help with getting the right mechanics.

I had a wonderful stay in this great bnb. The house is really nice, as well as the rooms, but what really stands out is the quality of the staff and the advice they gave me. They organised activities for me on the spot and made my stay in Musanze a great stay! I would recommend staying there.

If you are looking for luxury hotels go somewhere else but if it is authenticity that you want, you found the right spot. We woke up with the view over all of the volcanoes, the place is simple but lovely. Situated near a village where you can easily go for a walk. Olivier made our stay very special with his kindness and sweet attentions ( fire, blankets, hot tea ..) and Michael is doing everything he can to organise our stay ( car with driver, paperwork for the parcs, advices ... ) The breakfast is stunning with fresh fruits and pretty view . The dinner plate is huge ! Can't recommend more .

The place is simple but very comfortable, tastefully decorated, with a very comfortable bed and a very efficient shower. The staff were extremely nice and went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and to help. For example they offered a complimentary great lemongrass tea when we were back from our excursion, cleaned our walking boots from mud, etc. We had the best dinner we had in Rwanda (including much more expensive places).

    This homestay is wonderful! I am so happy that I found it. The room is clean and quiet, the breakfast and dinner that are included are tasty, but the best part is the family. They are so kind and welcoming — for this reason this is my favorite place to stay in Rwanda. Thank you so much Monique!

    It's really more of a homestay, which I personally appreciated. The host helped me with an excellent last minute trip to the twin lakes on the day of arrival and the two lovely girls working there took excellent care of me during the entire stay. Delicious breakfast and outstanding dinner. Secure parking and as a bonus a lovely dog (stays outside, well groomed, likes pets but is okay if you don't feel like it). All in all, highly recommended!
