The hotel is just woren out. The shower was not working and toilet had s bad smell. The hotel is located next to the port of Zanzibar - so there was noise 24/7 from the street - very hard to sleep. The hotel is located close to forodhani park which is convenient. ##### adnan Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrence May 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Local colour Wonderful architecture and ambience. Older building, no elevator but stairs. Muslim environment but not overly so. Good solid breakfast. If going out after dark travel in a group or request a taxi to the hotspots of town. I love this place but if you want shiny and new with hot and cold running staff, it's not for you. If you want to feel like you are on Stone Town, almost like a local, this is the place to be. ##### Lawrence Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Samwel Feb 16, 2024 Nothing ##### Samwel Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ruskin Aug 19, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Now I am checking out.

The air condition worked well and the hot water too. However the room itself was terrible, it had a foul smell of mold, and the bathroom is the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel. The shower is basically on top of the toilet, meaning everything gets wet whenever you want to take a shower there. Breakfast is basic, but somehow alright. For the price you can definitely find better options in town. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Shaheen Jan 21, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness Bonjour ##### Shaheen Stayed 1 night in Jan 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Aisha Oct 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Smiles Stone Town We booked this hotel after having read reviews and were a little disappointed considering the price that we paid and the images that we saw. We felt very deceived as you pay a lot for not much. The room itself is basic (images uploaded) with a very hard mattress and extremely squeaky bed - it makes noise with the slightest of movements. The WiFi works well in the lobby area but is poor inside the bedrooms. Also, the breakfast that we paid extra for our convenience was not worth the money considering the options are limited and they were out of many ingredients; for example, they’d only have the egg and toast as part of the full English. The staff on the other hand were great, they were extremely friendly and helpful. They’d go out of their way to help you out! Overall, our suggestions for Stone Town would be to look into a cheaper hotel as all you need is a place to stay or look into an Airbnb as the location and pricing would be more value for money. Everywhere in Stone Town is of walkable distance so don’t worry too much about location. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B1D7589B2E99C002F6D6612D76C60AB16BF215E81635419889778.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/99202FA7D2F3ED5D0BD74B313152C44A9943F7A61635419889710.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BDCAC47CC6C1BD84F2DFEA4EBD8CA7F053CCFE111635419891456.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Aisha Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrea Aug 26, 2021 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Ottima posizione, pulizia pessima della struttura e colazione quantitativamente scarsa. ##### Andrea Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 20, 2021 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Alright stay Its an alright place to stay for a night or two ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 23, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay for a few days, excellent service & great rooms.

Staff were lovely! ##### Robyn Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 21, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities I was supposed to stay in this hotel for two nights. My room was on the ground floor (G01) and it smelled terribly due to big mouldy parts on the ceiling. I talked about the smell with the staff, but they were not able to offer me another room even though they were aware of the smell. The windows in this room could not be opened. When I came back after dinner they had sprayed the room against insects. Three big dead cockroaches were now lying around the bed and in front of the fridge. The smell had also gotten unbearable and there was no one at the reception anymore. Since I could not breathe in this room, I moved to another hotel. The next morning I officially checked out. They did offer me another room for the second night, but after the experience I had, I preferred staying somewhere else. However they didn’t offer me a refund even though they could out rent my initial room and the replacement room in the second night again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 13, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The room is very clean (always clean!!!), excellent staff - they very friendly, great location, breakfast is excellent, All the things in the room were excellent! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kate, Seoul Jan 5, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities 에어컨의 존재가 큰 힘이 되었음. 하지만 화장실에서 하수구 냄새가 계속 올라와서 문을 닫아두고 지내면 괜찮지만 화장실 이용할 때 어려움을 겪었다. 그리고 샤워할 때 물이 잘 안빠져서 룸으로 다 흘러나갔음. 정전도 은근 잦았음. 방에 모기가 좀 있는데 모기장이 없어서 힘들었음. ##### Kate Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael Jan 3, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fair pcice We stayed 3 nights to explore Stonetown. The location is good for exploring stone town, but a little bit noisy with construction and traffic. Breakfast was good and sheets were clean 👍. Bathroom was not good. Lots of bugs and not separate shower. Aircon not work so good. Price is fair. Good for short stay ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 29, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### very loud area Vi fick ett ”nytt” rum som varken hade speglar eller papperskorg.
