4 Brilliant location with incredible staff
I spent a month at this hostel while I worked in Mbabane and looked forward to returning home at night to be met by the friendly and amazing staff. They were the most friendly and helpful staff I have met to date, and had no trouble meeting any of my requirements, offering me travel advice or teaching me bits of Siswati. They even offered to walk me to the shops at night so I wouldn't be alone! The dorm accommodation is standard but the incredibly helpful staff more than make up for it. I would definitely return to this hotel on my next Swaziland trip!

2 No value for money
We didn't enjoy our stay here at all. The place was rather dirty, the beds extremely uncomfortable, and the so-called private rooms a total joke. The staff were also quite unfriendly and reacted annoyed when asked for help or advice. It didn't hold the promises made on this website. The pool table for example was broken. It's sad because the lodge actually has a great location. We wouldn't recommend a stay in this place -- it's a waste of money.

4 Atmosphere was incredible, accommodations could do with some updating.
The staff at the Legends more than made up for the tired accommodations. They were so friendly and welcoming, I can't wait for a return trip.

5 This place is the best place on earth, trust me. I loved it, everything from the kloff jumping to the people. It's the only place in Africa where I can walk around at night without being a bit afraid. I loved it. See you again.

4 This is a great hostel if you're an outdoor kind of person. I was here this year and I had so much fun. Try it and you'll love it for sure.
