亞比旅館(Yambi Guesthouse)

Positives Rooms are clean and decorated in an African style. Beds are comfy and clean. The communal area is nice and a nice place to sit in. The small garden is very colourful and pretty. Breakfast is fine and other meals can be paid for onsite. I ate dinner there one evening and it was nice. The guesthouse is situated off the main road on a mud road. Hot water in shower. Good WiFi in common area. Cons There is a big gap between the room’s door and the outside so insects, mice etc can enter the rooms. Rooms are dark as the only windows look out on the communal corridor so you have to keep the curtains closed. Fortunately during my stay it was quiet but has the potential to be noisy as all doors open out onto this corridor. Breakfast was included in the room rate but it is only served after 7am. If you are going on a day tour or have an early flight then you get no breakfast. They refuse to pack a simple breakfast or even provide a teaspoon of coffee to make your own coffee in the morning. If you want a packed breakfast then you have to pay for it again. The staff aren’t helpful in providing transport options around Kigali. They wanted to charge me USD 30 to take me to 2 museums just a few kilometres down the road. They wouldn’t help by organising a taxi using the local cheap app. As a solo traveler I found this place to be very unfriendly and just trying to make money out of the tourists (unlike my experience at some other backpacker places that I have stayed at). I was disappointed with this place and wouldn’t have stayed 3 nights if I could have cancelled out for free. Staff unhelpful and certainly didn’t want to please.

Wonderful guesthouse with very friendly staff and great food! Would recommend to anyone who has some days in Kigali. Staff is helpful, cook is great, and the guesthouse is very beautifully decorated with much attention to detail.

The guesthouse is exceptionally clean and the gardens are beautiful and peaceful. I spent many hours just relaxing there. They have good wifi and a bar with a wide selection of beer. The food is well-prepared and the kitchen staff is very accommodating. The guesthouse is out of the way. You can walk into town in about 20 minutes, but the house is on a dirt road for the first part of your walk. After that the walk is easy. There are not many choices for food within a 10 minute walk although there is (usually) a chef on staff to make you a meal. The staff is able to arrange transportation for you into town but note that many Moto drivers may not know the location of the guesthouse when you are trying to get back, so make sure to take the address with you. You would probably have better luck with a taxi although that would be more expensive. The staff is helpful if you ask them, but if you are used to staff approaching you to see if you doing well, you will need to temper that expectation. I did have a shirt lost in their laundry there, but they were very helpful in working that out with me. Note that some rooms do not have a bathroom, so you would be sharing one with other guests. This wasn't a problem for me, but you may want to ask when you are booking a room. Overall, the guesthouse is a good choice for a comfortable, clean budget accommodation (if you don't mind that it is somewhat out of the way) and a very relaxing place to stay.

Staying in Kigali for a couple of days as a backpacker Yambi was definitely the right choice. The dorm is simple, but clean, the shared bathroom modern and has warm water, the staff is extremely friendly and attentive and you can order fresh, delicious food at reasonable prices any time of the day. The real highlight for me was the common area though. I spent more time than I care to admit sitting on the cozy wooden porch with a coffee, tea or beer reading, writing, chatting with fellow travelers or just looking at the lush tropical garden and the lights of the city beyond.

美麗，乾淨，漂亮和溫馨的地方！如果您想結識國際旅行者，必須與當地工作人員聊天並提出許多問題。總的來說，真的度過了一段美好的時光。工作人員非常好，非常樂於助人，氛圍很好。

這家旅館真的很漂亮，有舒適的房間，最重要的是非常好的員工和經理。食物也很棒。絕對是 Bagpackers 在盧旺達開始他們的旅行的好去處，因為工作人員可以提供許多關於全國各地活動的建議，他們還可以結識其他旅行者。並不是很貴。

美麗的度假勝地，或者只是休息和放鬆的最佳場所。我真的很享受在 Yambi 賓館的住宿。我強烈向該地區的任何人推薦這個地方。客戶服務超級樂於助人，這頓飯很好吃哈哈

這個地方太可愛了！我喜歡戶外休息區，。躺在其中一個吊床上享受微風真是太放鬆了！非常乾淨和卓越的服務。我強烈推薦住在這裡。
