The location was great! The staff were so accommodating and friendly. The manager Franktiba was very nice and knowledgeable about Stone Town and the surrounding area. They went above and beyond to make me feel extra special during my stay. I highly recommend staying at this hotel! The rooms are clean and spacious, the breakfast is yummy and the staff is hospitable.

The included breakfast was perfect. Great variety. The hotel staff were very nice and very helpful. It was always nice to come back to the room at the end of the day.
