“Basic room, but nice yard makes for nice atmosphere”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2011

I stayed here twice during my trip -- ie at the start, and then i came again when i passed through Addis at the end. In other words, i liked it enough to return: the rooms are basic and mostly a bit dark, but clean. And the leafy yard and sitting area is great for having a first, and last, makiato. And for meeting other travellers, which is key when travelling on your own. Go for it -- good value!

“Cheap, clean sheets, lumpy bed, grubby bathroom”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2010

The price of this place is great, and our double room with 2 queen beds was big enough, and the beds were clean. The beds were a bit wrecked though so my back (which doesn't normally have problems) was a bit sore after. They didn't seem to have cleaned the bathroom in a long time so I made sure I didn't go in there barefoot. Location is good, but there is plenty of competition in the Piazza area...

“Baro Hotel Addis Ababa”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2010

I stayed at the Baro Hotel between November and December dispersed between trips to Awassa, Nazret and Bahir Dar I had a single room. For the money it was a very good deal, the room was clean with a tiny bathroom and very hot shower if your on a tight budget. I would recommend this Hotel the staff are also very friendly and helpful the Baro is near main mini bus routes so you can go anywhere in the city no problem.

“Nice price”

I was on Baro Hotel during 4 or 5 nights in September. It is perfect if you travel with a limited budget. Rooms are clean, and has bathroom.

It is perfect if you look for a cheap hotel and has not really big expectations. I only want to have a place to sleep and left my bag, so this was a good place.
