“One of the most charming places we've ever stayed at. Antique, yet very clean and safe. Food was delicious, best we had on Zanzibar. Staff wonderful. Highest recommendation. ”
“I loved the charm of the old building. Breakfast was included and was very good. The famous Lukmaan restaurant is right around the corner. There is a mosque across the alley, so you will hear the call to prayer unless you’re a heavy sleeper. There is also street noise but it usually gets quieter the later it gets. There is no parking.

“A simple but comfortable hotel with a great location. The staff were very friendly and helpful – they even stored our luggage while we went on a safari to Tanzania. Excellent service!”
“The experience was quite bad as the manager Juma intentionally showed a better and bigger room with giving us a single bed room mentioned that’s standard room we booked (which we booked a double room) and asked us to pay more for change.
2 of us changed and saw Juma directly put the money in his own pocket. The feeling is awful.
In addition to that, the towel wasn’t change at all as I can find the same stain for 2 days. The housekeeper then changed after I asked.
