Friendly understanding staff, pleasant atmosphere, great location, peaceful surroundings, close to local amenities. During my stay they hired a chef to improve the value and quality of meals. The cleaning staff are excellent at their work and the laundry service they provide is great value, very convenient and top notch. The site does it's best to keep power on during electricity black outs by means of it's on site generator, which can be very useful due to ongoing works by the electric company. If you wish to stay in Dar Es Salaam I highly recommend their hotel.

A problem I have almost everywhere I go is that I am often too tall for the beds provided. If you are tall then it can be useful to ask for a bed which is open at the end so feet can rest comfortably. There can sometimes be issues with the plumbing, but highlighting these to management will soon resolve them. The menu of meals that was initially provided were sourced from off site and don't represent good value. This is an issue that is being addressed by the inclusion of on site catering.

Its located by the sea. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom clean with plenty of hot water. A/C fan all working well. Breakfast was good - plenty of variety with very attentive staff.

Swimming pool being cleaned so not open at times specified. I like coffee so bigger cups would be good rather than go back for second one in a small cup.

Very helpful staff, stayed 2 weeks

Would be nice to have a restaurant but they organise food for you, can be noisy if your room is close to the bar, better to move rooms if available for a longer stay
