Great location close to airport for overnight stay between flights with affordable shuttle provided being a real plus. Super comfortable apartment, although electrical outage (no fault of hotel) affected water availability, wifi, a/c.

Absolute bargain in Dar-es-Salaam, best deal you can find by far. Nothing fancy but for 15$ all the basics are here, it’s very clean, AC works just fine, a nice shower with hot water, location is very central, the wifi is fast like in Europe, it’s safe and the staff is doing the job. That’s all but for such a cheap price in the heart of Dar there is no point paying more to sleep.

One of the cheapest hotels in Dar Es Salaam and for that price you get a basic but clean room and bathroom, airconditioning, TV, good wifi, a basic breakfast, a central location and above all I found the staff extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Even the manager came to say hello. Recommended for those on a budget!

The accommodation was as described (budget). The location was ideal for airport transit (10-15 min drive). The staff was friendly and helpful. The facilities were basic, but clean. The airport pick-up/drop-off worked as promised. Flexibility with check-in/out times. I am a returning guest.
