My stay at Singa Lodge was quite the experience. The ambiance was beautifully styled with a mix of Eastern and African decor, and I really enjoyed the spacious room and the generous breakfast. However, I did encounter some issues with the first room's hot water and the amenities in the second room were lacking.
