This is a great stay in Tamale - outside the main centre so it is quieter but easy to get to the market or other areas if you need to. It was some of the details that made my stay special - the staff are amazing and go out of their way, breakfast was a step above what you normally get around Ghana with french press coffee, there was actual hot water, beds were comfortable and high tech lighting meant you could not turn on the full brightness when going to the bathroom in the night. Room was spacious, felt very safe as a solo traveller and wifi worked well. The rooftop bar/restaurant offers a nice view and breeze in the mornings and evenings.

It was clean, food was good and the staff was very nice

I stayed here for almost a month and tried AirBnB and other hotels in Tamale before. Compared to all other options, this is by far the best value you can get. A small room is 250 GHS and a big room 300 GHS. The location is extremely clean, the rooms are bright with a lot of sunlight, the managing receptionist is very courteous and professional, and the hotel is right in the center of Tamale. Due to the double double glazed windows (IRRC), the noise from the main street was reduced considerably. The mattress and pillows were comfortable. Notably, there were no issues with electricity. At the AirBnB around Tuunayili Last Stop where I stayed for 2 months previously (same price), blackouts were a huge issue - about 3 times a week, for several hours. The record was 18 hours no electricity. At Gidi Lodge, the personnel is using backup generators. All hotels and AirBnBs in that price range won't use backup generators to save fuel. For a backup generator, you usually have to pay at least 50€ or more per night. The internet at the Gidi Lodge was fine, and the water was also running (which is not to be taken for granted). Overall, this is an exceptionally well-run hotel. After moving to the next town, I really miss Gidi Lodge. Anyone visiting Tamale should definitely book this place.

Host is very friendly and keeps the apartment neat
