“Who else loves fresh bread? I can't do anything other than fresh bread. I know this is a hotel, but the hotel's hotel isn't as fascinating as the hotel's bakery and life band, people literally troop in here just to relax with the sure band, and it's a nice family get-together place. The hotel it's self is really standard as expected, a little bit high on the $ part, but it's well worth it”

“It's a cool and lovely place. Rita Lori has been around for a while and features a double live band plus swimming pool. Rita Lori is good for nightlife and open almost 24hours. Ambience too is cool and despite been crowded affords some level of sitting privacy. There's roasted fish as well as a suya spot located within. Call girls are available within and outside the bar environment at your discretion. Generally, it's a location that meets almost every need as determined and preferred by customers.”

“The room rates are relatively affordable compared to what obtains in other hotels in the neck of the woods. The hotel is centrally located in Garki 2 and it is easily accessible to almost every part of Abuja phase one. Neat rooms, good customer service with apple facilities commensurate to the size and standard of the hotel.”
