The location was great and stunning for traveling around Zanzibar, really close to Stonetown centrum as well as the island. There was Pagoda Chinese Restaurant a short walk from the hotel. The room was authentic and extremely spacious with aircon - we really enjoyed it.

The complimentary breakfast was tasty and served in a great location. the hotel was well-located, close to the city center but a peaceful area too. It was really useful having free WiFi in the room, so we could plan our daily activities at the hotel.
The bathroom had an unpleasant smell whenever we showered, and we had to ask for toilet paper as it wasn't replaced daily. the staff were often missing from the reception, so we couldn't ask for recommendations or arrange trips.
