The prices here haven't risen in years and that makes them even better value. While many tukul-rooms in Ethiopian hotels are dark, here they're filled with light and look out over a lovely garden area. The traditional furnishings and decor are nicely deployed, the bathrooms are large and the location's nice and central.
