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.

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.

The staff at Zanzi house were excellent. They allowed us to leave our bags at the hotel whilst we went on Safari, before we had even checked in at the hotel. They also provided us early check in on our day of arrival in the morning and were very flexible. The hotel has a lot of history and the common area and upstairs balcony area has a great ambience. The rooms were comfortable as were the beds. This was a great value for money stay.

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.

The hotel is clean, basic, a little price for what it is. The are around seems to be unsafe because there is a lot of people loitering and also dirty around. At night it can be very noisy, you have a mosque and church very near by so the call to pray is very loud at very early on the morning. If you are given an upper floor the stair is very narrow and steep so hard to handle with luggage

el mejor hotel relación precio-ubicación stone tow
he pasado unos dias geniales en Stone town gracias a la excelente acogida que he tenido en este hotel. Su relación precio y ubicación es total. Parece que está lejos de todo pero solo caminas 8 minutos de un agradable paseo y ya estas en el centro del casco antiguo. afuera hay muchos restaurantes locales muy baratos y con excelente comida

I think it's a good location to enjoy Stone Town. This is a hotel that you can be satisfied with overall. One thing you may be a little concerned about is the hard lock on the door, which makes a noise when opening and closing the door.
