10/10 Exceptional

Loved the property so much that we stayed twice. Excellent customer service. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. The rooms were clean and we had no issues while staying here. I would recommend staying here as it is close to the market and local attractions. Wifi was strong and the staff allowed us to leave our luggage for a few hours while we explored the city after check out.

Nice hotel close to the old quarters of Stone town

Nice place. Looked just like the pictures. Good size rooms. Breakfast and breakfast area was also very good. Hotel is just by the old quarters of Stone town. Almost all staff was very friendly (just one younger lady in reception that for some reason was not so nice to our daughter). Good price.

Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter. Schönes Hotel und Zimmer. Leckeres Frühstück und tolle Lage. Es gibt Tische und Stühle vor den Zimmern, deshalb manchmal etwas laut.

Nous avons séjourné dans cet hôtel de "ville", bien situé dans le centre de Stone Town à une dizaine de minutes des restaurants et de la plage principale. Concernant l'hôtel, charmant petit hôtel avec une réception ouverte en tout temps, notre chambre donnait sur la rue et était tout de même bruyante,Petit bémol pour le lit, où le matelas était un peu dure à notre goùt.

Bo här. Bra läge, service och fantastiska rum

Hade fått fem stjärnor, men det var hål i myggnätet och stackarna fick strömavbrott morgonen jag skulle åka så det blev lite bökigt för mig. God frukost och väldigt serviceinriktade. Pratar bra engelska. Stora och rena rum. Har ac och fläkt vilket var magiskt. De tänker på miljön mer än andra hotell jag varit på, tex är ac av då rummet inte nyttjas, men du kan slå igång själv så klart precis när du vill.

I was Ok with everything, price was good, place was very clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Hakuna Matata Nesh

8/10 Very good

The rooms are spacious but unfortunately the windows are only made of wood meaning you can hear everything happening in the alley. The breakfast is pretty awesome and everything is walking distance. The East African Slavery Market Exhibit is right behind the hotel and the beach is only a 20 minute walk. Overall would recommend.

2/10 Poor

Good Luck Finding It

Tried to find this place with a car for over an hour. No parking remotely close. Felt very sketchy. No answer on phone at 10pm despite numerous calls even though we forewarned of arrival time.
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The shower only came hot if you dribbled the water, no hair dryer available. The bed was small and hard. No town maps or directions, the safe did not work, their exchange rate was high, and In a very noisy neighborhood. The door had windows.to the corridor which had bright lights on all night. A miserable experience.
