Sun 11 Oct + Location close to city but not in the middle of chaos
Joan, Uganda9.0
Fri 11 Sep It was good + Location,staff,food − The bathroom was not functional
Bruce, Tanzania · Family10.0
Sun 6 Sep + Staff is friendly and helpful. The property is clean in a quiet area basically in Stone Town and an easy walk to Forodhani.
Liliana, PT · Family7.0
Mon 24 Aug A good-value, simple stay that works well for exploring the city. + Perfect location — close enough to explore the city easily, yet far enough from the noise. − In our room, the shower didn’t drain properly. Water accumulated because the floor slopes downward while the drain pipe sits higher, so you end up having to clean the shower area yourself before...
Salim, OM · Family6.0
Thu 20 Aug Middle of stone town. + Near Stone town and Forodhani − Need sum improvement with the restaurant
Ali Hossein, United Kingdom · Solo6.0
