Positive: The rooms were comfortable and the staff was very nice. Overall, it’s a decent place to stay.
Negative: What could have been better: It would have been helpful to know before booking that it’s a shared space, as that information wasn’t clearly mentioned. The cleanliness of the bathrooms could also be improved with more regular daily upkeep. Breakfast could use a bit more variety and creativity—especially for vegan guests.
Summary: Overall, it was a pleasant stay and I felt comfortable and relaxed.

Positive: Thanks to Jojo and her team we had a very nice stay in Ruhengeri! Aside from our BNB-host, Jojo was also very helpful to let us discover the region and made suggestions what we could do, day by day. We were also kindy greeted by Hoki, the house dog! Nicely decorated and equiped stay with a delicious breakfast.
Negative: The shower was really difficult to use
Summary: Pleasant stay, highly recommended

Positive: The breakfast was good and the hired staff very nice and helpful. I had a 2-story unit with the upstairs bedroom (with mosquito netting) and a bathroom that was ok. Potential visitors that plan on going on the Gorilla Trek/Golden Monkey walk should be advised that the owner charges $100 USD RT to take you to the Gorilla trek and $30 USD for the Golden Monkeys.
Negative: Ordinarily I would have given this place a 7-8 rating. It was an okay place to stay. But unfortunately, the owner, Isaac, and I had a big problem when I left. I had independently hired a car to bring me to the hotel from Kigali. I was charged $70 USD for that and given that it is a 2 1/2 hour drive, I thought that was reasonable. That driver also offered to come from Kigali to pick me up when I checked out, but Isaac said he would arrange a driver for me for the same amount which I thought was the better option. So that day, I gave Isaac $100 USD, $30 to take me to the Golden Monkeys, and $70 for the ride to Kilgali. The car/driver was waiting for me when I checked out, and before we drove away from the hotel, Isaac and his wife jumped into the back seat. I thought they might want to be dropped off in town somewhere, but it quickly became apparent that they intended to ride all the way to Kigali. I told them that would be okay, but that it would only be fair to split the cost of the car. They didn't agree at all, since I had already agreed to pay $70. The discussion became very unpleasant, and I told them to get out of the car, not knowing how it was going to end up. By that point we were a bit far from the hotel, but I agreed to have the driver take them back to the hotel. BTW, during the heated "discussion" Isaac said that the 2 1/2 hour trip to Kigali was only $30 and the $70 was for the Golden Monkeys. So he offered me $15, half of the $30, to have him and his wife go all the way to Kigali. It has been a few weeks since this incident and it still bothers me a lot.
Summary: Not a pleasant visit

Travel Purpose: business
Positive: A comfortable guesthouse, homely and welcoming. The staff are friendly and very willing to accommodate my requests. I was able to make tea, use the fridge and prepare snacks in the guesthouse kitchen. Breakfast was cooked when requested, including one very early start, or packed up. It included the usual eggs and fresh fruits, but nice brown bread was also available. Room 1 is large and faces a small garden at the front. Furnishings are adequate but nothing fancy. The bed is comfortable. Wifi is good. Outdoor seats on the front terrace are a nice feature. The self- contained annex is recently built and very contemporary and attractive.
Negative: Don't expect a view of the volcanos, they are in the city background like everywhere else in Musanze, but not seen from the rooms or garden. The main guesthouse could do with a few repairs and coat of paint in places but this does not detract from the nice welcome and atomosphere.
Summary: A welcoming and homely stay in a nice area near the city

Positive: If I wanted an all-around western comfort accommodation in this area, I would have to spend at least 6,000 USD. For a fraction of such price you get a good b&b with a comfortable bed. Everything -the grounds, common areas, room, bed, under the furniture, bathroom, house kitchen - very very clean (the "wardrobe" was dusty though). Staff is amazing, very welcoming, friendly, accommodating, always genuinely eager to help. Speacial thanks to Isaac for his superb communication. Isaac also turned out to be a wealth of information and an expert on travels around Rwanda and Uganda. I met travellers for whom Isaac designed and organized exciting activities in both countries. Isaac can also arrange transfer from Kibale. If I ever go back to Rwanda, I will base myself in Volcano View for several days and take all these activities ran by Isaac. I would even bring kids.
Negative: For such price, I can't complain, but for future travellers here - the process to get hot water is to push a red button next to the shower head, then wait for AT LEAST an hour (not 30 min as staff says). Then you have exactly 7 min to take a shower. We learned it the hard way as the first night we weren't careful and one person used up all hot water.
Summary: Exceptional value

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: People are super friendly and kind. Room is comfortable. Good shower temperature and pressure (but you need to turn the boiler on 30-60 min before shower)
Negative: The doors are very thin so you hear everything from the living room. The breakfast is quite simple and feels repetitive.
Summary: Good place for the price
