I'm so glad we booked this place for our 4 nights in Stone Town. The location was great, and the staff were lovely. The room was big and comfortable, with a mini kitchenette, a HUGE bed with mozzie netting, air conditioning and a good shower. The restaurant/ bar was pretty good too, and there was plenty to eat for breakfast.

    Very, very clean. Super friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast (buffet). Good location - right by the ferry terminal and within a 5-minute walk from the main gate into Stonetown. A cozy and fairly large swimming pool, located in a lovely garden. A 3-minute walk to the nearest beach (albeit small) where you can swim or catch a small, wooden boat to Prison Island or Nakupenda, etc. Overall, a very good experience.

    Location is perfect, next to the ocean and 2 minute walk from the old town center. The breakfast was decent and our room was well kitted. The rooftop swimming pool was a hidden gem, more quiet than the bottom quad swimming pool.
