I stayed there 2 days then 4 more days when coming back to Kampala, and I am sooo happy about it. The staff is so helpful, nice and available. The second time I arrived on Jam session night and I had the chance to play there and to meet a lot of wonderful musicians. Best Kampala experience ever, thanks to the Five Horsemen. I'll be back!
