Axel's take: 8.0/10
A good Bole base for apartment space and helpful staff, with practical details to confirm. A simple independent apartment hotel in Bole, near the airport, scored for what it is.
Zemilo is a simple independent apartment hotel in Bole, and we'd shortlist it for longer stays or an airport-convenient base. Booking.com guests repeatedly praise helpful staff, clean rooms and comfortable beds; recent Expedia and Tripadvisor feedback broadly supports those strengths. Apartment options with kitchens and living space make it more useful than a basic overnight room, while nearby restaurants and shops add convenience.
The trade-offs are practical rather than luxurious: Booking.com's Wi-Fi rating trails its other scores, and breakfast feedback ranges from enthusiastic to fairly ordinary. Accessibility needs checking because Expedia says there is no elevator, while Trip.com lists one. We'd skip it if dependable internet or confirmed step-free access is essential. Otherwise, it's a good choice for travelers who prioritize space, location and friendly service over full-service facilities.
