Very clean. Rooms had air conditioning which was very much needed. Lockers are provided but they are small. Only for a little backpack. Staff was friendly. Excellent location with restaurants, shops, an ATM and various historical sites all within a 30 second to a few minutes walk.

The location is great. You’re less than a 5-10 minute walk from all the main sights in Stone Town. The beds were large and the hostel was clean. The dorms have A/C but the rest of the hostel does not. Overall it was good.

The property was one of the nicest hostels Ive ever stayed in. The location is perfect, the dorm is fantastic and the facilities were great. If you’re in stone town be sure to stay here as the price is very fair and it’s only a short walk to Tatu pub, great for a few drinks in the evening.

“Great location and facilities, perfect for a short stay in Stone Town if you are on a budget.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
The female receptionists were not the most welcoming or helpful when you had questions. I'm not too sure if that could be due to language difficulties. The room was a bit more crammed than I expected, but once the curtains are closed (which is a great addition) it feels much better.
The hostel is close to all of Stone Town's main attractions, and everything is in walking distance. The airport is only a 20 minute drive away and doesn't cost too much to get to. The room and bathrooms are cleaned thoroughly everyday (twice per day for the bathroom). The room has air conditioning and wifi is not just restricted to the lobby. Finally the showers are always nice and hot.

The fact that they advertised a few options of dormitories, however I was put in the general one, even though paying a higher price than they were selling rooms on the day.
I liked central location of hostel, and quietness in the rooms.

The staff let me wait for so long although I was quite tired after walking. They did not give me any towel and blanket and no cover for the pillow as well. The room has so many people, (around 16-20) and therefore, it is noisy all the time. It was hard to find a place to put my backpack since the locker they have is tiny and the floor was full of stuff from other people. The common place is hot since there is no AC. I had planned to stay for a week there but finally I decided to go to Paje beach, which is very beautiful and quiet. The room here is cheaper as well, only $10 for a private room.
The property is located within walking distance from the ferry station. The bed is huge and comfortable.

“Nice hostel, maybe a little bit overrated”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler

-no credit card payment -they never have change on the front desk (when you are buying water, or paying for the accomodation itself for example) -tours that they organise are overpriced- don't do tours with them -their airport transfer is a little bit overpriced -no space for luggage (very narrow corridors between beds with just a little bit of space for the luggage) -staff is a little bit incompetent- each of them was giving us different information regarding tours, some of them find it challenging to subtract 10-2 etc. -a lot of annoying people trying to sell you something in front of the hostel door, you can't make a step before they jump on you (not part of the hostel staff)
