    Staff need to take care of their personal hygiene.

    Breakfast was much better than before. Quite a wide spread. Staff need to be quick to refill.

    Excellent breakfast! Room and hotel area was clean. Located in the middle of Stone Town. When you learn some routes, you do not get lost. Before that, just take it as an adventure!

    The balcony in room 311 is loose and unsafe. Coconuts and palm fronds fell on my head whilst I was reading, giving me a headache and bruises which were bothersome for 2 days. Whilst this in itself is an occupational hazard of being surrounded by such trees, one of our fellow guests had alerted the staff to the precarity of the fruit on the tree in question and its safety, for three days prior to this.

    I loved the little signs and sayings painted around the property, the book - swap area, the beautiful trees in the restaurant/pool area. Staff were friendly. Rooms were clean.

    Great location in town nearby the shore and lots of cafes and restaurants around. Beautiful garden with pool and restaurant. The breakfast is nice with a lot of variety. Rooms are comfortable and come with a mini fridge and water boiler. I can recommend this place to stay for a few nights to explore town.

    Location maybe not the best. Had to walk a bit (10-15min) to do some sightseeing. Pool had troubled water so didn’t look very clean (but it was acceptable, we still swam in it).

    Good vibes overall. A lot of options for breakfast. Very helpful staff, could ask them anything. Pool was refreshing and had an affordable bar/restaurant beside it.

    Breakfast had space for improvement. The coffee and the fruit were tasty but the rest was warm food like omelette and meat stew but no cold stuff like cheese, jam, ham, ... A bit heavy for the stomach in the morning. For unclear reasons the room service didn't change our towels despite the heavy humidity so on the 3rd day I personally brought them to the reception asking for fresh ones. The drain in the shower was partly blocked so we had to constantly turn off the water while taking a shower to prevent building a pool. Because of the open structure of the building it could be loud, especially when the other guests were talking very loud late in the night, making it difficult to fall asleep.

    Friendly staff, easy check in/out, beautiful garden and bar, clean room. Good location, you can reach anywhere in walking distance. They provided us with fresh towels to use the pool shower after the check out.

    Pool looks dirty, water is not clear. They’re doing massive refurbishment work by the entrance that’s very loud and dusty.

    Well situated in the centre of Stone Town, bar/restaurant area is very nice. Breakfast was very good.

    - Pool only open 7-7 - very little space in the room. The bed in my room was so big it took up all the space in the room and didn’t leave any space for a suitcase or just walk around the room - restaurant is mediocre- the pizza I had was not great. - the hotel is not accessible by car. You have to walk a bit from the road (not much and all drivers help you) but I feel it has to be mentioned by hotel

    - There’s a working AC and mosquito nets. - The hotel provided me with a nice breakfast when I had to leave early for my flight.

    Centrally based but a private world inside the verdant courtyards behind the gate.

    Payment was demanded in cash when I arrived and I was escorted to the nearest ATM which didn't help because I couldn't withdraw the required amount. I was particularly annoyed because I had guaranteed the room with my credit so the money was available. This business with credit cards - it is erratic. One minute cards work and then they don't because of the signal. Television had to be tuned and then I could only get a couple of stations, Africa Today and a channel showing a drama in Arabic. Also at night even if I switched it off, the television light lit up the room.

    This is situated in the middle of Stone Town but is enclosed with two courtyards and a restaurant. My room was on the third floor. There are plants and coconut palms within the courtyard/ restaurant and a small swimming pool. By the lift is a bookcase with second hand books (I contributed a couple of books). The restaurant was excellent value at dinner and welcoming. My room had a kitchenette. My bed had a mosquito net and I particularly liked the fact that every evening a woman came to sort the mosquito net out, close the windows and spray the room with mosquito killer.

    The pools were too dirty. You can't swim in them. From the large pool, you can't even see the bottom since the water is so murky and cloudy. The other small pool is slightly better, but still way too cloudy to try to swim in it. Breakfast was a little too simple and not super nice (some stall bread, few options), but still okay and they will fry an egg to your liking.

    Location is ok, staff is nice, security is good because there are Masai Mara warriors protection the guests, including at night. There is a mosquito net present, which is nice ..with some holes so bring your own too if you are in malaria season.

    We haven't checked the location so even the ocean was quite close but we had to go through the local market shops. It was not a pleasant feeling.

    Excellent 👌 staff friendly, helpful, polite so on. We were a really nice and comfortable hotel. We could stay in the hotel and take a rest next to the pool.

    The area is under construction so expect drilling, and other construction noises., We got a room in the central alley, after the reception and hence continuous passage of people which makes the room not peaceful as it is not soundproof at all.

    The pool area is nice. One waitress at the pool restaurant was super nice. The hotel is ideally situated, close to many curio shops and the food market. Really good breakfast, we have loved it, great variety and good service.
