- Spacious Accommodations: The room surpassed our expectations with its generous size, complemented by an extra-large. - Ideal Location: We loved the hotel's location, which added to the overall charm of our visit. It was conveniently situated for exploring the area. - Stylish Decoration: The hotel's decor was tasteful and added to the overall ambiance, creating a pleasant and inviting atmosphere.

- Payment Limitation: One minor inconvenience was that we could only pay in cash, as the credit card machine was broken. This could be a consideration for future guests to plan accordingly. - Uncomfortable Pillow: While the bed was fantastic, the pillow provided wasn't as comfortable, impacting the quality of our sleep.

the property is well located in the center of stone town, 5 minute walk from most places, 2 minutes from Lukhman restaurant and a few rooftop restaurants. the rooms are a good size and the staff is friendly there is an amazing rooftop view, they are still fixing the rooftop but it’s a great spot for sunrise.

the rooms could’ve been cleaned alittle better. there is a communal speaker very close to the hotel so you hear the Islam prayer at 4am in the morning , extremely loud, as if speaker is in your room. the breakfast was basic, by day 3 we were over it

People were very nice and paid attention to your needs. It was very clean. The relation quality/price was a good one. I liked breakfast, and you can eat the fruit. I did. And had no problems.

Sometimes, it was difficult to fin my way around and mobile connections around the city might be unstable. It would be nice to have a local map printed on paper as you arrive. You need to take a boat to one of the three islands in front of Stone Town, and that costs extra money. On the beach in Stone Town itself, only tourists get undressed.

Location was perfect for exploring stone town.

I needed the beach so we moved to another area of the island. Thank you for the flexibility and assistance during our stay.

Inside the hotel looked just like the pictures. Staff were all lovely. Good water pressure. Absolute best spiced coffee.

Bed was really hard. No TV. Hotel name not on door so very hard to find.
