8/10 Very good

Setting in a lively and interesting area of stonetown, Darajani Market. Simple clean rooms with bathroom and shower, good air conditioning. Staff were very kind and helpful. Good value for low-cost.
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The property is poorly managed. Some staff members do not speak English. The sink for hand wash was not working. There was no breakfast service
