The personal are very friendly, also Roberta wanted to help us immediatly when we asked for. The dinner was very good even the breakfast was fine. The terrace is sooo beautiful and fresh.

The A/C didnt work but there was a fan which helped. The bed was okay but could be better.

Little Italy in Dar, a place to go back to.

Roberta is a great host, has simple but very ample rooms, clean, great value for money, and location, rooftop lounge and food court. Breakfast is basic and morning sunshine was good too. Dinner option exists and it's very good home made food, at unbeatable cost. Laundry service great and quick as I had to part in a hurry. exceptional. I will go back. Plus you only met cool guests, explorers, obviously many Italians which added to the charm and soul. Breakfast included. The building was kind of colonial era style. the place had its charm.

The rooftop lounge could be more comfortable to hang out, wifi was not good everywhere, breakfast elements like omelet offered even at additional cost would be an upgrade.

Good location. I felt very safe - I was travelling alone with two children (teenagers). Staff helpful. I found the room comfortable and adequate - the boys wanted more!

The breakfast wasn’t great but a short walk/bus ride away was a great breakfast (for the boys).

The terrace is quite wonderful when you step out of the room.

The fact that they say they accept credit cards and then add a 3% surcharge when you pay with it – they should communicate this clearly that credit cards are only accepted with a surcharge.

Most of the apartments house Chinese people. The security team are armed with guns

The hotel is near the beach area so location is fine. There is a swimming pool good size on the premises

Nothing to complain about

Very good

It was peaceful being out of central Dar but had everything needed. Didn’t serve beer but could buy in the shop opposite if wanted

Food was mixed - chicken and rice was fine but others esp pasta/western was bland and needed much more seasoning.

disappointing

friendly personnel

water of shower on bathroom floor; airco is not good; bread at breakfast is very dry; Presence of cats around the table during meals is inconvenient. The owner/manager gave wrong information about the availability of luxurious buses with toilets inside.

Loved the timely service, the care and freindliness. Would recommend.

They were helpful as I came in super late and left quite early in the morning. They accommodated my needs well and were super polite and pleasant. I'd recommend them for short stays.

Very good

The bathroom was spacious and water was nicely hot. The breakfast was delicious and staff was very friendly. I also really enjoyed the location, removed from the expat bubbles but still close to everything needed.

The WiFi didn't work on the terrace. And breakfast table was pre-set for all guests in one table. Even if that is nice to boost communication between guests it is not super pleasant if you are on a "solo day" and actually need to go to the table and take your things to a different table. The curtains in the room could also be improved, as there is a lot of light coming in early morning.

Best place to rest in Dar

I loved everything about the place. Location is great, in neigbourhood Mikocheni, very safe area and only 15min far by bajaji from Coco Beach. Breakfast is tasty and everyday different. Rooms are big and very clean and also toilet inside with hot water ;) you can also have dinner there for 15000 tzs and laundry for 10000tzs. Is a piece of heaven in the middle of chaotic Dar es Salam!

Great value for money and nice place to meet people

Excellent budget accommodation. The staff is great, helpful and welcoming and the management is full of (great) advice to travelers. Rooms are basic, but clean with mosquito nets, fan and A/C, hot shower, and very strong WiFi (in the room). The location is very peaceful/safe and is also very convenient for researchers or students willing to stay for a longer period of time. Last, there is a very nice view on Dar from the rooftop.

Great value, charm and friendly personel

Good value, very friendly staff. Beautiful and classic building and terrace.

No option to have boiled water in the room (but the staff brought hot water to the terrace) . No internet signal on the terrace. Beds a bit short and mattress too soft.

Cozy, quiet, lovely little hotel in the suburbs of Dar es Salaam

The staff is amazing, the food is amazing, the place is quiet and cozy. I don't think you can ask anything else. It's far from the center, so not ideal if you need to go a lot in the downtown, but if you don't mind the downtown that much and just want to relax, it's the best. I stayed here just after arrival and loved it

I got once stuck at night. I couldn't leave the property. They have a security guy hired but he might have been sleeping or something because I couldn't find him. I talked about it with the staff and they provided me with the security guard's phone number. Still, was a bit strange
