Great location for the walking tour, Old Fort, and Forodhani Gardens. Their staff was great - making sure we could quickly grab a pizza before our walking tour. Breakfast in the morning was also good. Unfortunately, we weren't made aware of the switch on the wall to turn on the water heater, so I had a cold shower in the morning.

Good location close to the Forodhani night market. We couldn't sleep due to the noise outside from the other Air-condition, and from the people cleaning and preparing breakfast from 6am.

Great … but the Wi-Fi sucked!
Everything was good or even vert good, like the room 403 on top by the pool, EXCEPT the Wi-Fi up in the room totally sucked. The signal went in and out and when it was there, it was very weak. But for the money I paid during low season overall, except the Wi-Fi it was a good value.

The location of the property is fabulous if you want to get the historic feel of Zanzibar. The seafront is stone's throw sway on one side and the shops are stone's throw away on the other side. There is ample choice of restaurants within walking distance.

Good Place to Stay
Location was excellent in Stone Town. It was safe, friendly and clean. Service and manager were phenomenal. Not one piece of comfortable furniture, bed was adequate. Room had good air conditioner but TV was fuzzy. Breakfast was average, fruit was good.

A great place to stay, especially for a scuba diver. A 2 minute walk to the dive shop, preceded by a nuce complimentary breakfast! My room was cleaned spotless every day, fresh towels and sheets every day. All amenities such as AC,TV,pool,WiFi, were fully operational. Staff were all friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be staying here again!
