    It was the cleanest accommodation we've been in Tanzania (and we travelled the country for 3 weeks). Very good price. Big room, with a/c, big bed, hot water, they give you towels for free and flip-flops for the shower. The location was perfect,...

    Very good location (in the center, not far from the ferry gates) and the place is clean with all the essential services you might need. The staff is very kind! Good value for what you pay!
