    Unique room, that also was nice styled for charging phones. The location of the hotel was particularly good - not too far away from The Zanzibar Curio shop.

    The breakfast they served was just normal, hope one day it will definitely be improved.

    The place was wonderful and had lovely staff with all other services, truly enjoyed the stay. The packed breakfast was sensational and gorgeous with french toast, juices plus pancakes & eggs. The hotel had a marvellous location a short walk to Forodhani Gardens. Besides, we were close to cafes/good shops/restaurants of Stone Town.

    The bathroom was very dated.

    The beach front sitting area at the restaurant and bar was perfect for enjoying the views. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Easy access to explore Stone Town and great options for diving nearby. The transfer to the airport was a breeze.

    Felt fine, no reason to complain.
