This hotel isn't the Hilton by any means but if you are looking for a safe, clean budget hotel this would be it. Didn't see any bugs (we've had issues in other tropical hotels) and the room was very clean!

Terrible Experience
We had a terrible experience at this hotel. We were first checked into a room that hadn't been cleaned and were then moved to the adjacent room which happened to be right next to the elevator. The walls are thin and we could hear everything from the next room. The front desk agents who checked us in were less than courteous and had attitudes when we brought forth the deficincies. The laundry misplaced one of the four items we sent for washing and had an attitude when we asked them about the missing item. The bellwoman, doorwoman, housekeeing and lunchroom staff were courteous however we wouldn't recommend this hotel for future stays.

Nice place, nice staff but the area around the hotel does not look too good. There are markets, low class restaurants and shops around the corner.

Was just fine for a night stay until catching the ferry to Zanzibar next day. Room was clean and comfortable enough. Nothing fancy but nothing to complain about, got a good night sleep which was all that was needed.

Overall hotel is just Ok
Hotel is just ok staff is not really friendly. Although I prepaid everything but while checkout i got a surprise that i have to pay additional 40,630 Tanzania Shillings because their system is showing that and they don’t have any explanation to that additional amount and they keep calling it human error in the system which doesn’t make sense. I will probably won’t book this hotel again. If someone stay please don’t pay in advance
