Accommodation was fair, but no contact by the Owners this is not acceptable. Rate will be 5

Pros: Location African staff member was very helpful and pleasant Cons: No contact from the Owners. My brother was let in by the maid which was not a problem as she was very pleasant and helpful. I emailed the owners twice regarding my brother going in early, no response, My brother never even saw the owners.
