Very well maintained hotel with excellent rooms. The staff was also very accommodating to our request for a late checkout, and helped with weighing out our pieces of luggage to ensure we did not go over our airline weight limits. One point to be noted: the shuttle to the airport was not complementary, Charges were USD 15 per person.

We initially chose this hotel because the aesthetics are absolutely gorgeous the grounds photographed well and the amenities met all of our needs. Upon arrival all staff went above and beyond to serve from the security team all the way down to the maintenance crew. A huge shout out to The breakfast bunch that provided excellent service. The sauna was not working but the steam room was and if you have sinuses you won't once you leave. The gym and the ground were state of the art. The location was centralized so we were able to get everywhere for less than $10 via Uber. We had gated security that checked all vehicles all bags are attractive on arrival. You feel safe and at Home hence why it's called Boma! I have to go back to breakfast because it was extremely diverse the food was amazing and fresh. Now the only thing that I would have to mention is that we ask for extra blankets to make the bed a little bit more comfortable but other than that we have no complaints. Asantè
