minimum confort et bel emplacement

6.0

Le quartier, la proximité avec la plage, restaurant magasin de souvenir.

L'accueil a l'arrivée. Pas assez organisé. Il faut plus de communication avec ceux qui sont là et ceux qui gèrent les réservations en ligne. Les lits était petites et pas adaptées surtout qu'il s'agissait de deux couples

The customer service were so welcoming. The place is witn town, a fwe meters from the beach which makes access to Nakupenda sand bank and prison Island super easy. Forodhani park is just 2 minutes walks.

Nothing at all

お手頃、清潔!

9.0

場所も良かったし、スタッフも良かった。 部屋は広くて清潔感がある。 立地もよく、ストーンタウン内ならとても便利。 洗濯機もあって使えるのかな?私は手洗いしましたが、中庭で干す場所を使わせてもらって、助かりました。

強いて言えば、ベッドの近くにコンセントがあればもっと良かったかも。 たまたま長いコードを持ってきていたので大丈夫でした。

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.
