The security people and the dining room staff and the housekeeping were very nice. But the front desk staff were less than pleasant. And they nit picked everything. You have no privacy. They follow your every move. I felt violated. And the food in the restaurants is average at best

Made us pay again even though we were fully paid through hotels.com. Hotels.com gave us a refund but the Boma should have contacted hotels.com if there was a problem on their end. We showed them the paid booking and they wouldn’t honor it without us paying again so I wouldn’t book this hotel again.

This hotel is owned by a charity and the management behave accordingly. Uninterested reception, outdated rooms; a distinctly underwhelming stay and on the face of it this hotel has declined more than a bit post COVID.
