Die Lage ist sehr Zentral und man hat gute Belüftung auf dem Zimmern.

Das Badezimmer könnte eine Aufwertung gut vertragen.

"Don't stay at KARIBU INN!!!!"

1.0

To begin with when I booked 2 rooms I was eligible for free airport ride I cancelled one room and was still eligible for free ride but lost it(USD$20) I paid in Tzs according to booking but hotel charged their higher rate although i had Tzs which was not right No soap or shampoo AC wasn't working as I paid for AC room. The breakfast was very basic but can't complain The cook/server was very nice.The night clerk at night (Mahmood) was very helpful The check out experience was awful as the owner was there.He was trying to bully me and was very rude.When I started to communicate in Swahili and stood up to him, he backed off Be careful if you stay there.Try not to Itsnot what it portrays online

No soap,no AC and owner's attitude. The rest of staff were awesome

It was so clean, exactly what we expected for that price, the breakfast was lovely and the location was lovelier, it was so close to the beach we were able to move around stone town and back with no worries. It is literally next to foradhani food market. 💯 recommend.

No milk for breakfast only hot water
