Great place to stay on your vacation πŸ‘Œ. Very much cheaper to what they offer compared to other hotels with exaggerating prices with little or same facilties. The hygiene is topnotch. AC available, 5 minutes walk from the harbour, and the staff, they are really great at their job. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Zanzibar whether solo, with family or with a group.

Not the best area of town but the place itself is just FANTASTIC!! The receptionist, the lovely Gertrude, was the sweetest person we've met on the island and very helpful with finding nice spots to drink, eat and see the sunset and even to get us a rental car for a very good rate. The room was spotless and charming with nice water pressure and very quiet. Breakfast was up in a nice sunny terrace and the food was fantastic. Truly a great beginning of our trip for a price you simply can't beat. I

Nice place for good prize, quite good breakfast, AC might get loud at night but works well for a few nights. Only thing, and it is not on the hotel just warning, it is very close to the port, due to fumes/salty wind my neck/lungs hurt a bit.

The location is on the north end of the sea wall. All the action is on the south end. So you will have to walk a bit to get to the action. The walk is safe. Speaking af safes. The rooms do not have them as advertised and the desk will not hold valuables. That said its a very safe place. The staff are lovely. Its a good bang for the buck. Great breakfast. Neat little rooms. most important. The beds are firm and comfortable with a good choice of pillows.

It is fine if you have a ferry to catch and won't spend much time here. The sheets are clean (though stained) and towels are clean and large. The air conditioning works well and I believe there was hot water for a shower. There is quite a bit of street noise at night and early morning. You get what you pay for.
