Our flight was delayed. We were unable to stay at the Boma. We booked with free cancellation. The Boma Hotel refused to refund the one night we paid for. The amount is being disputed with the bank because the Boma hotel is committing fraud. When you book and add free cancellation, the Boma does not have the right to keep the money and tell Expedia that they have strict policies. Malcom, Joseph, and the manager at the Boma Hotel are committing fraud. Do not stay there because if the airline is delayed, you will lose your money. There are nice hotels that won’t steal from you.

Some of the staff was outstanding. Others were just doing their job. The condition of the rooms were average. Pillows were old and flat. Face cloths missing or stained towels. The hotel has a grand look and the larger suites are comfortable but it doesn’t quite measure up for the price.
