Mustafa, might have misspelled his name, but he was very friendly and tried to help get things working as much as he could.... breakfast was fair, no menu or options, but the eggs and potatoes were cooked great and the chef was nice

Fantastic stay. Great location, excellent and friendly staff, and best WiFi I’ve had in east Africa.

The location, walking distance to the night food market, excellent staff

Mohamed, United States of America

This is a comfortable place to stay and good value for money. The staff are friendly and helpful - for example they gave me advice unprompted about getting over to Prison Island for less money than booking a tour - and allowed me to have a late check out for free. My room was relatively basic but had an air-con unit and ceiling fan with a comfortable bed and mosquito net, reasonable bathroom and hot shower. The breakfast is also fine. It's 10 minutes walk to to the Old Fort in Stonetown.
