Terrible. Orbitz did not forward the money we paid to them. When called they provided an invalid credit card number. We had to pay again. This happened over 2 hours at 1-3 AM in the morning. Horrible.

Poor =2
Did not achieve my objective of a breakaway. The neighbourhood is very noisy until into the late hours of the night due to religious formations closeby. I could not sleep at that place due to the noise and the house keeper asked me out before my checkout time and had to wait with my baggage at reception for checkout and transport which l had already arranged for 11h00 based on my checkout time confirmed with reception beforehand.The breakfast was unattended I my first experience was not great hence I never went back for the remainder of my stay. My rating = 2/5

Hussein, Cairo

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Acceptable when on a budget
Poor internet service and Service support and the Hot water from the shower comes with an intolerable smell. I had to use cold. Not the cleanest hotel and room but completely livable. The reception staff is quite good but that is the only staff that is good. Multiple technical failures on a daily basis (Ex: Elevator, Internet...etc.)

6/10 Okay

Tufa, New York

Liked: Cleanliness
Very convenient if you have business in the area
The hotel is located outside the city in a complex with different offices. It is the most convenient if you have business in that complex, or surrounding area, and want to avoid the city's horrible traffic. That was the case for me. I stayed there several times because of the convenience. Otherwise the hotel is just average. The rooms are big(it is a hotel apartment)and clean enough. No good restaurants in the area. The hotel's restaurant is good. The hotel has gym and a very small swimming pool at the top(13th floor). I always choose the top floors for nice view.

6/10 Okay

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Its main appeal is that it's near UDSM.
Everything about it is a bit shabby looking; the dining room is slow with not very interesting menu; the decor is, well, not really decor. Not terrible, fine in a pinch.
