The hotel facilities are very old, especially the ventilation system in the bathroom. When I was in the bathroom, there was a sudden explosion, which caught me off guard. The room basically has no view because the distance to the next building is very close, so all you can see is the wall. Secondly, the price of the hotel's breakfast is very unreasonable, 15 US dollars per person, the buffet has very few choices, and the taste is average.

This hotel is really bad. When we first checked in, a foreign friend was arguing with the front desk and wanted to check out. We were surprised at what happened. As a result, something very angry happened after we checked in. We booked It was a larger room with a sofa, but I was given a very small door. We went to the front desk, and the person at the front desk argued that it was just a sample picture, and it couldn't be the same as the picture. Later, I showed her Ctrip's room types, and they gave her the cheaper ones. The one we stayed in was actually a bit more expensive than the one we booked, so he reluctantly changed the room for us, and kept his disdainful attitude. This hotel really didn't meet the price, it was very dirty, and I really don't recommend it. There are even more irritating things. I really don’t want to go into details. If you want to spend money to find trouble, come here...

The hotel is located in Stone Town, and the car can only drive to the parking lot outside. There are signs indicating that it is easy to find. It takes five or six minutes to walk from the hotel to the beach. What I want to complain about is that the hotel's breakfast is nothing to eat. The restaurant is on the top floor. Looking out, there are simple and low houses around, and you can't see the sea. It doesn't have the effect in the hotel's promotional photos. To be honest, I just booked it after seeing the beautiful scenery of the restaurant in the hotel's promotional photos.

The hotel is very close to Stone Town, but it is relatively hard to find in the alley. There are road signs on the roadside, so you need to pay attention. The breakfast restaurant is on the top floor, and the view is not bad, you can see the sea.
