    This hotel offers great value for money, with prices that won't break the bank. The attention to detail is impressive, from the rustic feel of the rooms with two beds to the basic amenities provided. The location is unbeatable, being close to the park where the night market is held in the center of the city, as well as being just a stone's throw away from the market and the boats. And the highlight for me was definitely the breakfast with breathtaking views of the bay.

    All was well, no complaints.

The staff are friendly and accommodating, ensuring a pleasant stay. The rooms, with their rustic feel, offer basic amenities and comfortable beds for a good night's sleep. The breakfast, accompanied by stunning views of the bay, is a great way to start the day.

    The hotel is well-located, only a short walk to the night market. It's also situated very close to the municipal beach behind some luxury hotels. the rooms are decent and comfortable, with some facilities like air conditioning. the staff is friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast is lacking in variety and quantity.

    Enjoyable stay with friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and convenient location to explore the surrounding area. The rooftop terrace offered a stunning view and a relaxing atmosphere to unwind after a long day. The air conditioning and Wi-Fi worked perfectly fine and comfortable beds were much appreciated.

    There were some downsides to our experience. The breakfast options were quite basic and could use some improvement.

    I had a wonderful stay at a charming hotel in Zanzibar. The location was perfect, within walking distance to all the best spots in town. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The room was basic, but everything worked well, including the air conditioning. Although the amenities were nothing fancy, the value for money was excellent. I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and affordable stay in Zanzibar.
