Extremely good value for money, 21 usd for two people. Air-condition, breakfast with fruit bread eggs and juice and coffee and pancakes. My own bathroom and shower. Nice quiet location with calm walk into city center, maybe 5 mins until the heart. Nice bed although a bit thin mattress. And retro nice old building, historical. Relaxed rooftop terrace with bring your own food/drink it seems. Nice stone town experience, and quiet as opposed to if you stay in the narrow streets of stone town, where the mosque awakens you at 0530 and people are speaking loudly outside from early. I expected little but this blew my mind, 10/10 for the price. Nice staff, and many friendly guests. Different parts of the houses are on display and has retro furniture that matches the age of the building. Very cool place, please go there and don't expect a lot, and you will be so very positively surprised.

Review of Al-Minar Hotel The hotel is very close to the beach and the harbor for trips to Prison Island. The room was clean and the furniture was in good condition. There was a kettle for making tea and a fridge to keep the water cool. The shower water was easy to adjust. The breakfast was excellent, with coffee, fruit, toast, eggs, sausages, pancakes, jam, Nutella, and butter. It was delicious. The staff was well trained, helpful from the booking process, responsive to online messages, and supportive with anything we needed. I highly recommend this hotel. Thank you.
