+ This is a budget hotel about 2 kilometers from the center of Arusha. However, it it is clean, secure and comfortable. One afternoon there were monkeys playing in the trees outside the hotel and coming onto the balcony. During the day you can walk around...− The hotel is on a side "road" that is very rough and unpaved so be warned if you are driving a car. Not much the hotel can do about that. After dark you will need a flashlight/torch to get back to...
