There is no shuttle in spite of my being told that I would be met at the airport. Take a taxi! They only provide a free shuttle TO the airport. The place is very clean and the bed comfortable. The smell, however, of fowl poop permeants everything. The staff are all nice. The location isn't conducive to wandering anywhere.

Not wonderful

Poor communication. No email address or phone number. No pickup from airport as agreed. No electricity from 8:45 p.m. to 2:45 a.m. Lots of crowing and gobbling; place smells of turkey poop. Many different levels of walking surfaces, giving ample tripping opportunities.

The good news is that Expedia made right this problematic stay.
The bad news is that the hotel fell down in several key areas: The free airport shuttle never materialized, despite the hotel confirming. The room had no AC, though the listing said it did.
Other minor issues: room had a smell; room was dark and one fan didn't work; \"included\" breakfast included only coffee and bread (eggs available for extra).
It was also difficult to contact the hotel, as their telephone number according to expedia and web was disconnected. (Fortunately, Expedia was able to give me their email address, though, as noted, it proved to be in vain regarding the airport shuttle).
That said, Expedia was GREAT

Overnight near hotel.

Airport pickup was excellent after a late flight arrival, helpful at arrivals lounge and arranged car straight to hotel. Organised very early basic breakfast for next day. Bed and room were clean but bathroom needs maintenance, sink not draining and broken towel rail. Bed ok but pillows lumpy. Overall what we need for short overnight stay. Fit for purpose.

Lovely quaint place individual entrepreneur I try to support the economy and people there. Not a whole lot of extra amenities and Madagascar shut off their electricity a lot but if you want a wonderful island vibe this is the place. I’ve never been woken up by a turkey before but they have a pet turkey and he loves to talk to you.!!!! I made sure it was a pet and not their next dinner😜😜🦃

Good overnight before a flight

Great place to stay near the airport before a flight. Affordable dinner, free continental breakfast, and a free aiport shuttle.

Only issue was the twin bed didn't have a mosquito net, and the electric went off so the fan didn't work. So, we had to choose open windows with mosquitos, or hot room with no mosquitos.

Misleading: the description of the property's amenities included free WiFi, blow dryer, air conditioning and heating. The truth is that the WiFi reception was good only in the middle of the pool patio; the ancient blow dryer blew warmish air, and there was no A/C or heating (note: the temperatures were at 50F at night). Also, the shower was unusable as it had no door/curtain and was quite grimy/rusty; the bidet didn't work, the lighting in the room was insufficient and gloomy. On the bright side, the bed was comfortable, the staff was friendly (some only spoke Malagasy), and this place would do in a pinch if you were desperate. I would not recommend this place, would have rather spent twice as much somewhere else.

Very nice host, very convenient location

Such a nice host - what an introduction to Madagascar's hospitality - we landed in the middle of night in Tana Avamada was there to welcome and take us with 0 wait time. Logde was few min from the airport. Liked the nice garden within the compound. Breakfast came in quite handy as well as there is not much around this place.

Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend.
Transfer vom Flughafen ins Hotel war in Ordnung.
Der Transfer vom Hotlel zum Flughafen wurde vom Fahrer zu Extra-Fahrt an weit entfernten Geldautomat zu überhöhtem Preis genutzt. Auch die Weiterfahrt einer Begleitperson ins Stadtzentrum war absolut überteuert.
Allerdings ist das dem Hotel nicht anzulasten. Vorsicht mit dem unverschämten Fahrer.

Oase med fantastisk service lige ved lufthavnen

Avamada Lodge ligger kun få minutters kørsel fra den internationele lufthavn i Tana, og vores vært hentede og bragte os uden ekstra beregning. Så det er et super sted at overnatte mellem flyvninger.
At vi så kom til en dejlig oase med palmer og en lækker pøl, var bare ekstra dejligt. Inden længe sad vi i to liggestole med en stor THB øl og nød livet. Til aften lavede vores vært byens bedste zebu-bøffer med grøn Madagaskar pebersovs til. Hmm. Og morgenmaden var fransk med flutes og sprøde croissanter med store kopper kaffe til, juice m.m. og så var den inkluderet.
Vi boede på Avamada Lodge to forskellige gange og kommer gerne igen.

Very calm with a clean pool and exellent service

the hotel resides about 10 to 15 minute car ride from the airport. Since there are only few flights, there is no noise from the airport. A charming and small family hotel with a clean pool. Prices for dinner and lunch are comparable with offers from other hotels. Dinner and lunch very good with no diaree later. I stayed there on arrival and decided to stay there on my leave again 2 days. I even cancelled the hotel i had booked before
