"Great location. Good value for money for budget trip"

8.0

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were kept clean every day. Superb location for someone who wants to explore Stone Town as well

It is not their fault, but being in the middle of Stone Town, especially during Eid celebrations, meant the noise at night would get loud until late. Also, not their fault, but people/guides trying to sell you their tours were right outside their doorstep. Everyday I had to tell them off.

Атмосферный отель с винтажными интерьерами и мебелью. Всё старое, но всё работает. Очень чисто. Приветливый и любезный персонал. Очень неплохие завтраки. Расположение - великолепное.

Если придираться, то смеситель в душевой уже можно поменять. Хотя он вполне исправен, но выглядит непрезентабельно.
