Good location, close to the waterfront. Helpful staff, they arranged my airport pickup and were able to get a good price for a taxi out to my beach hotel too (Ten airport, Thirty to jambiani beach). They let me keep my luggage in storage after i had checked out. I liked that the shared dorm had AC in it.

Daniel

United States of America

I loved the location. Walking distance away from the port and the water and really just a great spot to explore from. The staff helped me make reservations for activities (spice tour and safari blue) on very short notice and for better deals than I was able to negotiate on my own.

Everything perfect for me. Good air conditioning clean bathroom and hot shower. Staffs were very friendly and kind to me.

Nothing to complain!
Absolutely beautiful and amazing stuff! Location is perfect, close to the beach and night market. Rooms are clean and beds are comfy. Wifi works perfectly. Breakfast is good also. They offer airport shuttle for 15 $ and the taxi driver was waiting 1,5 hours for me outside the airport for me because I had to claim my missing luggage. I'm really thankful for that! Thank you guys for this beautiful time.

“A pleasant stay in the heart of stone town.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 4 nights
We only saw the bathrooms being cleaned twice during our 4 night stay. They were also cleaned around breakfast time which was inconvenient due to it being the time when the bathrooms are most used. The one bathroom didn't have a shower curtain for 3 of the nights so it was flooded when ever someone showered in it. The city taxes were not included in the original booking,com price so our total cost almost doubled when adding in the $9 per person per night. They should rather be included in the advertised price on the booking websites. We did a spice tour through the hostel, and though only advertised as $20 per person, during the tour we were strongly encouraged to tip three other people that showed us round which made the tour around $30 each. Would have been better to do a different spice tour. Breakfast was always delayed and never served at the expected 8am.
Staff were friendly. Great location right inside stone town. Big, comfortable bed in a room with aircon which was a welcome relief from the heat.

The price here is very cheap for what you get. It is also a great place to meet other travelers to hang out with. They had a taxi waiting from my at the airport (at my request) But above all, the location is perfect. It is right in the middle of Stonetown and a great location to set out from and explore the maze of narrow streets.

The bathroom on our floor was not so clean anymore after one day.
The room was very clean with AC and you are next to Forodhani garden, so the hostel is very central. The hosts are nice and try to help you.

Lockers should be in the rooms, not downstairs. Availability of water in the bathrooms.
Even though there is lots of beds in the dorms, they are well equipped with curtains, lights and powersockets, so you have a little privacy. The bathrooms are to few for many people and water wasn't always there, so the bathroom situation could definetely improve. I didn't try the breafast, as it looked rather boring and expensive, but there is nice cafés everywhere around. In the end the hostel is a good pick just for budget sleeping, nothing special either though.
