"It's beautiful to stay in an old stone town and in an old hotel"

8.0

The hotel is just a few steps away towards the beach you can sit there and have a breakfast without any interruption. it also has swimming pools if you don't want to go to beach

People outside standing hassling you to buy things from them and then security comes and ask them to move.

Great location, next to the beach and it’s closed to all the locations in Stonetown. Staffs are very nice, helped us to prepare breakfast takeaway for early check-out.

Facilities are bit old, no water coming out from tap but the staff got it fixed immediately

"Perfect location to explore Stone Town"

8.0

Very friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms and we had the best shower so far in Zanzibar. The swimming pools are all very nice and the location is perfect. And nothing beats having breakfast with sea view.

The airconditioning made quite some noise, and also outside there was a constant humming sound.

"Guest requests should be taken into consideration."

6.0

The location of the property was good. I really enjoyed the breakfast. The buffet breakfast had a sufficient variety.

There are two hotels with the same name. I booked based on the pictures, but the one I stayed in was on a very narrow alley. Buildings were very close together, and the view was terrible. If I had seen those pictures, I would definitely have preferred the one by the sea. I left the hotel a day early due to my flight, but when I arrived early in the morning, they said I couldn't have breakfast. This upset me because I wasn't going to use my breakfast allowance on the last day anyway. There were insects in my room. I told them, and they fumigated the room, but the next day the insects were back again. This is a significant problem that must be solved. The water in the bathroom is very low, which makes showering take a long time. The room towels are very old and definitely need to be replaced.
