Safe for tourists as it's connected by direct walkway to ORT. Do not leave the airport to walk outside to the hotel. Use the interior walkway. Great hotel for transit to rental car (also located along the same walkway). Good buffet dinner and friendly staff. Good service.

This experience at the hotel was not the best. I always stay on my travels through Africa. The service has dropped from my past experiences. The phone was not working to call and request any services, during this quick stop over. I choose to stay due to the convenience and easy access.
