Dar Es Salaam

This was a great location with a nice apartment style room. The staff was very friendly and helpful during check in and with local information around the location. The restaurant was good for both breakfast and dinner, the rooftop view of Dar Es Salaam was a great way to spend our first night there.

We were very good guests to the property and tipped big to make the staff happy. They will charge you massive overcharges then play games apologizing each day saying they will take care of it. Indian owners act nice but don't respkndn Stay awasy.

Very nice and spacious rooms. Restaurant at the rooftop was great for views and drinks. Food was just ok. Breakfast buffet was exceptional on the other end. Only tiny complain is the soap pumps in the bathrooms were rusty and not working. Housekeeping obviously knows and ignore! Please replace immediately! Staff super friendly! I would go back! Yes, I would recommend this place!

No pool access, no working kitchen. Comfy beds.

Hotel was very nice, as you would expect at the price. A peaceful place to end a hectic trip, and we had our room upgraded for free. Some issues though: 1. No pool. It is closed on Sundays (there was no warning of this), and when open is in a separate building. Same applies to the gym. 2. The kitchen was not stocked with the tools to cook anything. No saucepan, utensils, mainly just empty cupboards, some glasses, small plates and basic cutlery. 3. Breakfast was booked as included but we were told it wasn’t when we checked in. Had to get hotels.com to speak with them about this, which was time-consuming. When we got it, it was excelllent. 4. TVs in every room and none of them worked/were tuned. Usually wouldn’t care about this but we just needed to chill in Dar, and it’s a real basic.
