Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The rooms were always tidy when I returned, marvellous, and equipped with a mosquito net around the bed. The service was just amazing, although there was a slight hiccup with unfriendly behavior. The location was perfect for me, being near the University of Dar es Salaam. The dining experience was good, especially the fresh juice, and the facilities were brilliant.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spotless and comfortable, and the bathroom was very good. The location was perfect for me as I could easily reach the University of Dar es Salaam where I was attending a conference. However, the dining experience, although good, was a bit far for those wanting to be close to Kariakoo market.
The hotel offers clean rooms equipped with mosquito nets for comfort, but I experienced constant disconnections. It was conveniently located near our desired activities, though it seemed a bit isolated. The service was friendly, with a standout receptionist, even though they forgot to replenish towels one afternoon. Dining was satisfactory, with good fresh juice, but may not be ideal for those wanting proximity to the market. Overall, a decent stay with minor inconveniences.
The hotel offers well-arranged, super clean, and cozy rooms; however, maintenance is needed, and the WiFi can be unreliable. The service is professional and pleasant, with the staff willing to improve the stay. The location, while seeming safe, may not be the greatest, but it was ideal for reaching the nearby University of Dar es Salaam easily. Dining is decent, though it may be a bit far for some, not far from the Ubungo Bus Terminal. The facilities are adequate, though the air conditioning may be flaky.
I had a wonderful two-week stay at this hotel. The rooms were well-arranged, clean, and impressively maintained. The hotel provided great value for money, although the location was not the most pleasant.
I found the hotel to be a great choice due to its favorable location and comfortable rooms. The staff was really friendly, adding to the positive experience. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the location wasn't perfect for all activities. Overall, it offered good value for the money.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was convenient and safe, perfect for my conference at the University of Dar es Salaam, but the lack of cleanliness and comfort in the rooms was a downside throughout my two-week stay.
