    We checked in very late due to our flight schedule and the hosts helped us through. The apartment is in a great location. It’s next to places to get food, groceries and clothes. The swimming pool is a lovely touch though there is no signage to where the gym was. The wifi is quite good and the place is very clean.

    Host organized TAXI transfer to/from Dar es Salam airport on reasonable price. It is possible to check-in early in the day-time not only like other hotels which are providing check-in only in the middle of the day. Host's wife or other woman has made a dinner instead of breakfast (breakfast was included in price) due to my specific check-out time. My check-out was at midnight due to night flight from Dar es Salam. Cozy terrace in guest house premises. You can look on surroundings and drink some beer in the terrace.

    Wifi worked mostly well. Breakfast was ok, I was glad to have fresh fruit there (I don't eat anything else). There were a few other breakfast options though (just a few). Good location, walking distance to the ferry and right in the city center. One hotel receptionist was a bit weird when I was checking in but all the other employees were fine.

    The room is pretty clean, beds are comfortable and the garden is pleasant. Breakfast is simple but good. The two hosts are sympathic. The concept of bar and hostel is great. They provide chichas, beers and homemade cocktails. The neighborhood is quiet and you can find a really good and cheap local restaurant in the corner.
