It was very difficult to find a location for this accommodation before arriving. The only internet location we had been able to find, was incorrect. We had to phone the number provided then pay someone to lead us there. The sitting area was nice and there was plenty of ventilation. In a mosquito area, there were no flyscreens on the windows which meant windows had to be kept closed and the room was very stuffy and hot. There was no ceiling fan or air conditioning. We sent a message to the number provided and asked for a small fan, but we didn't receive a reply. The bed was comfortable. Toilet seat was broken. Shower was almost directly over the toilet making everything wet. Breakfast comprised an egg omelette, toast, banana and cucumber. There was no milk for coffee/tea. Overall, even though this was budget accommodation, we weren't happy and can't recommend.…It was very difficult to find a location for this accommodation before arriving.

We sayed at ngorongoro lodge & campsite for one night following a safari. We booked our stay one day in advance due to poor planning on our part, as we were supposed to catch a public land cruiser from Karatu earlier in the day. The staff did not know we were coming, but they welcomed us nevertheless. They told us they would arrange a cab to the land cruiser early the next day - but they didn't. We had to get them to call a cab in the morning - and the cab they got was way overpriced. The food was good, but the most expensive we have seen so far on our trip (been in Africa for 5 weeks). There is no air condition. The staff was not always around, and we had to look for them in the morning. When we first found them they were helpful. The stay was comfortable enough, clean rooms, hot water and internet. …We sayed at ngorongoro lodge & campsite for one night following a safari.
