The bathroom to me was the best room in the house. The whole place was nice and it was clean. Lovely view from the balcony, especially at night. I like that there was space to put a suitcase at the side of the bed near the wardrobe.

I had a wonderful stay here! From the moment I walked in, it was clear that attention to detail was a top priority. Each room is uniquely designed with its own distinct theme, and yet everything feels cohesive and very on-brand. The decor was not only stylish and modern, but also warm and inviting — a perfect balance that made the space feel like a boutique hotel with personality. I particularly loved the outdoor swings on the balcony. Cleanliness was top-notch throughout the apartment. It’s clear the team here takes pride in maintaining a high standard. What truly elevated the experience was the staff. They were incredibly kind, professional and super helpful. I also loved the fact that there were various books offered in the living rooms, both adult and kid friendly books to take a break from screen time. Aqueduct 1359 is a hidden gem in Kampala. Whether you’re in town for business or leisure, it offers both comfort and character. Highly recommend!

We loved everything about the apartment, it's clean and modern, what you see is what you get, very beautiful and elegant. Everything works perfectly. The hosts are very responsive and helpful, they quickly attend to issues. We had erratic internet the first day they quickly installed another provider for seamless WiFi. Sherry is an amazing host, she went out of her way to make us comfortable, to help us through navigating Uganda. Michael the security oh what a pleasant personality he carries. Everything was perfect, I have a home in Uganda with Jonarick Apartments. I highly recommend them.
