    The hotel is unique and fairly clean, everything is outstanding. The staff are genuinely helpful and delightfully helpful and I enjoyed their attitude. The venue has best possible setting in Masaki district not far from interesting areas, good restaurants and shops and a nice, lively area. The restaurant serves delicious Thai food.

    Truly enjoyed my very good stay for 3 nights. It was in an ideal location really close to half shopping centre, one of the best hotels on the Peninsula and boats leave to the neighboring islands. A few times I ate at Kind Earth Eatery, located at a medium distance from the hotel. An electric kettle and a fridge in my double room were a very thoughtful addition.

    It was a commendable fit for a stopover in Dar es Salaam with value for money. The food they served was amazing, with guests commenting on its deliciousness. Make sure to check the AC settings upon arrival to keep the cool air flowing.

    Awesome vibe and friendly faces!

    Had a wonderful 2-night stay! The staff were super friendly. Breakfast was fab, and the room was clean and comfy with a good mattress. The view by the water was nice, but the WiFi was a bit spotty. Enjoyed chilling by the pool too, with towels brought to us. Definitely a good option for families!

    poor cleanliness
    unpleasant odor

    Fine location but cleanliness needs attention

    I really enjoyed the fine coastline view and the vibrant atmosphere around. The proximity to various shops and restaurants. The cleanliness was a significant concern as my room had visible stains and an unpleasant odor. This aspect needs immediate improvement for a better guest experience.

    I adored the charming decor throughout the hotel, which blended traditional Tanzanian art with modern comforts. The public areas were well-lit, spacious, and easy to navigate.

    Wi-Fi connectivity could be more reliable for seniors.

    We loved the location. The staff were so friendly and helpful, which really added to our experience. Our room was clean and well-maintained, and the waterfront dining was a highlight, perfect for sunset views.

    We were disappointed that we couldn't swim in the pool on our first night because it was closed. It would have been great to have that option after our long trip.
