Worst hotel ever

2.0

Worst hotel ever I stay. When check in at night 11:30 they gave Room number 205 & that room already occupied. So I told then they give room 24 triple room was very unhygienic, toilet was unclean, fan not working. I complain but no listen. I already informed at the time of booking that we are vegetarian so provide veg food no egg, then also not provide then I again argue then they provide vegetable. Now I am checking out. But experience of checking out will send soon. And I want my money spend in room want refund by hotel.

Wonderful architecture and ambience. Older building, no elevator but stairs. Muslim environment but not overly so. Good solid breakfast. If going out after dark travel in a group or request a taxi to the hotspots of town. I love this place but if you want shiny and new with hot and cold running staff, it's not for you. If you want to feel like you are on Stone Town, almost like a local, this is the place to be.

My stay

4.0

The manager did what he could to make it good for me. The hotel is just woren out. The shower was not working and toilet had s bad smell. The hotel is located next to the port of Zanzibar - so there was noise 24/7 from the street - very hard to sleep. The hotel is located close to forodhani park which is convenient.

Det var inte riktigt som bilderna visade, ingen jättehög standard. Det ligger nära en trafikerad gata så ganska mycket ljud.
