Really wonderful place to stay in Stone Town. The room was clean, spacious and quite affordable for being in such a central location. It is very near all the major tourist sites. The owner and the staff were excellent. So helpful and ready at all times to assist. There is also a seating area on the top floor which was an added bonus.

The staff are well trained. Their hospitality is exceptional…. We faced a problem with the booking website, however, the owner of the hotel upgraded us to their best room without us even complaining about it… Everyone was just so welcoming, and made us feel at home… The rooms are clean and big, AC working, big windows, yummy breakfast… Highly recommend.

Although it is a 1 minute walk from where the taxi dropped us off, the location is great. Near to all Stonetown attractions Forodhani Gardens, and restaurants. The breakfast was good. The wi-fi broke down one day but they got it repaired right away. The new owner and all the staff were really friendly and helpful.
