The hotel is closed and therefore didn’t honour my booking and I am unable to contact anyone from Expedia to get a refund. I am owed £213 for the booking but there is no way of contacting anyone.

Mixed feelings
This guesthouse would have a huge potential with minor improvements. Now there were some issues that need addressing.
The location is good in Polana with a nice neighbourhood and plenty of restaurants and shopping around. The distance to the Independence Square is a bit over 2 km. The Museum of National History was about 700 m away. The street next to the museum had the terminus of several bus lines (the name shown on the buses was simply Museu).
The room was nice and quiet and it had a good aircon. The WiFi signal was a bit on the weak side in my room, my phone lost the connection every now and then.
However a number of seemingly small issues had a big negative effect. No toilet paper or shampoo were provided and even the soap was almost finished. Luckily there was a minimarket very close for buying toilet paper.
The staff didn't speak English. The man who was mostly at the front desk didn't even bother to respond to my greetings which I made in English when passing by.
The breakfast was supposed to start at 7 AM. The only day I had breakfast it wasn't ready until 7:40. It was also minimal, consisting of a bread roll, a toast and a fruit.

Recomendo
Residencial muito agradável, numa rua também muito calma, mas suficientemente perto da zona central de Maputo. Quartos agradáveis, com arrumação diária. A dona é muito simpática. O restaurante é muito binito em decoração e com uma ementa muito variada e excelente

L’établissement a été correct, propre et organisé.
Le petit-déjeuner correct, avec une bonne omelette et café plutôt correct.
Au plein centre, mais la vue de chambres pas génial.
Bon rapport qualité/prix.

Hôtel où passer une ou deux nuits, mais pas vendredi, samedi, dimanche: discothèque juste à côté...
Petit-déjeuner quelconque et toujours le même.
Douche sans porte ni rideau, d'où salle de bains inondée à chaque douche (aucun siphon d'évacuation de l'eau).
Chambre 206 sombre (ok pour dormir, mais pas pour y séjourner).
Matelas très bons.
Emplacement pratique dans un quartier sûr.
Prix expedia juste acceptables; prix à l'accueil tout à fait exagérés.
Une anecdote déplaisante: Un serveur du restaurant a cherché à mémoriser mon code de carte de crédit (je sentais son regard dans mon dos et ma femme a confirmé que son regard était rivé sur l'appareil), puis a délibérément laissé ma carte dans celui-ci: l'ayant remarqué à temps, j'ai pu le rappeler ; il m'a rendu ma carte et s'est à peine excusé.

Pretty hotel with an all night discotheque
This hotel is pleasing in its minimalist decor. The building itself has a mildew problem that cleaning and nice paint cannot mask. The room freshener is also unpleasant. The noise level at night in the discotheque is annoying. They should provide earplugs. The shower does not close.

Hotel muito bem localizado
Gostamos muito do hotel. Está bem localizado, os funcionários são prestativos e a proprietária nos prestou assessoria que estava além de suas reais atribuições. Ficamos muito satisfeitos.
