For the price this place was really great. It was a little hard to find but they reach out and give you contact details ahead of time. Its in a really central location but still quiet. Place was very clean and room was large. Had a shared bathroom which was cleaned often. Was only slightly more than a hostel but definitely a step up

Very nice owners of the hotel, everything was very pleasant. For those who are not fixated on the Euro level, this is a great place to relax, atmospheric and shows the culture and surroundings of Zanzibar very well! I am very glad that I chose this hotel! I recommend it!
