Naleli Guest House

We were excited to check in after our drive from Maseru and were disheartened to learn that there was an issue with our booking. To be fair, we were there during the October elections and most properties in town were booked up by election observers. Naleli though we had only booked for one person and we had four, the owner/manager stepped in to find a solution. She kindly offered us free drinks while we waited. Ultimately she found four rooms for us at Bird Haven, their sister property. Since we were not fully happy with our rooms there (see my separate review), we decided to move back to the Naleli the next night as they had the space that night. Naleli is a lovely property with a pleasant garden surrounded by a range of different rooms. I was fortunate enough to get a suite which had a huge bed, a desk, a sitting area with a big fridge, and a large bathroom with a tub and shower. It was a big improvement over my situation at Bird Haven the night before when I didn't even have my own bathroom. The restaurant has a very limited menu with no vegetarian options. They were able to make me a greek salad for lunch a vegetarian pasta for dinner so I didn't starve but it would have been tough had I been there for more than a day or two. The breakfast was basic but nice with made to order eggs, beans, and the like. Overall a nice stay despite the unfortunate situation with the booking error.
