Description
The Baobab House is a very cosy house with friendly staff and very interesting guests, a "peaceful island" in the hectic town of Cape Coast, as a guest used to say. The House is 100 m from the "Castle" and the beach, 10 minutes walk to Kotokraba market. We are between Banks at one side and the fishermen area at the other side. Begging children who are often undernourished are begging in this area. We give some of them a warm meal after school, if they go to school. The space Our rooms are on the second floor, overviewing the sea or Cape Coast town. They are not self-contained, with wooden steps going up. The rooms have fan, no Aircondition. The furniture are all produced by our school and mainly of bamboo or cane and willow. We keep our house very clean, we have very friendly, well trained staff (10 of them former students from our school) and we try to support the guests whenever it is possible. Taxidrivers are available who are working with us. Our clean toilets and showers are shared and at the court. We keep them clean at each time of the day. Due to awater problem in Ghana the pipe often doesn't flow, but our Polytanks are filled at all time and you can fill a bucket and take a bucket shower, which is very common in Ghana. You can sit at the sumer hut and order your food or fresh fruit juices, when it rains you can use our conference room for eating. Internet is best in this area. If internet is not working we can't change it, as it is the provider's problem. Guest access During the day you are received by our receptionist who will explain everything and bring you to the room.
