10/10 Exceptional

I stayed here one night after landing in stone town. Perfect spot to nap on and off to get through the jet lag and be right in the heart of stone town. Extremely walkable to sites. The rooms are spacious, excellent shower and super comfy bed. Very clean and was just what I was looking for. Please note that it was a bit difficult to find. The taxi just dropped me off on the main road because cars can’t access the small streets. Once you know where it is, it’s super simple to return to

Very basic hotel. The bathroom didn’t work well. For the price it’s fine, but couldn’t stay longer than 1 night in this place.

Helpful staff greet you and are very willing to take you anywhere you need to go.Just a short walk to the water and street food. Lovely open air balcony where my family and I were served a plentiful breakfast each morning for a very reasonable 4$US

Snusket hotel i et snusket kvarter.
Pga, den høje skat på værelser i Zanzibar, var det ret dyrt, selve værelset kostede 130kr for en nat men oveni det kom en skat af 9USD pr Person pr nat, hvilket fordoblede prisen. Kvarteret det ligger i virker noget snusket og er ikke umiddelbart et sted man har lyst til at gå rundt i efter mørkets frembrud. Vi tog værelset fordi vi skulle nå færgen til fastlandet om morgenen, og til det formål var værelset okay, men ellers var der ikke meget at råbe hurra for. Personalet var dog super flinke.

Tek kelimeyle Rezalet "
Bu otele 10 metre mesafede bile oradaki esnafa sordum otelin yerini bilemediler,ortak vc ve banyo olduğunu farketmemiştim ama oda tuvalet gibi kokuyordu...2 gece için 207 lira ödediğim otele giriş yaparken 36 dolar vergi istediler,balık pazarının karşısında olan otel balık pazarından daha pis kokuyordu,kalmak istemediğimi belirttim.. ayrıldım.. recepsiyondaki görevli bayağı memnun görünüyordu, bu otel gerçek bir değerlendirmede 3 yıldız değil motel dahi olamaz.. bu eksiyi hotels com.a yazarım hiçmi denetlemediniz,,, hiçmi denetlemediniz 5000 km yol gidip böyle bir hayalkırıklığını hiçkimse haketmiyor.... hiç kusura bakmayın bu hotele benim değerlendirmem 0.

Il faut dormir dans la toilette
La toilette est dans la chambre, sans mur sans porte, et ce n'est pas montré dans le site, je n'ai pas pu imaginer mais quand je suis arrivée c'est trop tard, je ne reviendrai plus jamais.
