Great location. Good service. In the middle of the city center ( old part of the city). Many commerces open during the day. At night is not safe to walk around but you can always call a taxi an Uber.

Staff was great. Main room lights don’t switch off unless you remove the card for power and that way the aircon doesn’t run

Når gæsten kommer tilbage?

Da vi kom igen næste uge, kunne vi ikke få et værelse til samme pris igen, så vi endte med at gå et andet hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Reliable hot water and cold AC made the stay very comfortable. The in-room safe didn’t work but not a deal-breaker. No AC or fan running in common areas (ie. Lobby) although the machines are standing there. Same for restaurant, although they did turn them on as soon as I sat down for breakfast and cooled quickly, so maybe that’s a plus for eco-conservation!

Sentralt. Rent og pent.

Ca. 10-15 minutters gange fra Zanzibar-ferjeterminalen. 25 minutter fra markedskvartalene. Rent og pent med alt som trengs. Egen resturant med bl. a. god indisk mat😊

Satisfactory hotel

The room and bathroom were fine, the AC, fan and TV all worked, and breakfast was good. The location was quiet and the staff was helpful. We walked a lot and the streets around the hotel felt safe. There is nothing particularly exciting about the hotel, but there is nothing to complain about either.

Peaceful spot in the messy city

Checking in took some time, since the hotel couldn't find our reservation. Eventually we got the room, which was quite full with furniture. The balcony gave extra space, though. Everything else worked well, but the net went off and on, off and on.

Comfortable stay and bad neighborhood

Hotel was comfortable; bathroom and room were clean with good airconditioning. Wifi did not work in my room, though it was functional in the lobby and on other floors. Neighborhood is crowded and access to hotel is terrible. Hotel had a good Indian restaurant with several cuisine options.
