Guestline Lodge

There's no better place in Kumasi for independent travellers on a budget. The VanefSTC station is a block away, there's Internet access and there's a relaxing and sunny courtyard where you can read and order meals to be delivered from Vic Baboo's café, which is owned by the same friendly Indian family. Look first before deciding on a room since they vary in quality, size and appeal.

Some are carpeted, some have tiles and others have concrete floors. Dorm rooms are available. It's a three-storey old white building with star decorations along the side.
