Price was fine for what you get. Location was ok, walking distance to the ferry and right next to the city center. I walked all around without any problems. Air con and fan in my room worked well, also wifi was fine. Receptionists were all nice. I appreciated the mosquito net around the bed. My room and bathroom were clean.

Wifi worked mostly well. Breakfast was ok, I was glad to have fresh fruit there (I don't eat anything else). There were a few other breakfast options though (just a few). Good location, walking distance to the ferry and right in the city center. One hotel receptionist was a bit weird when I was checking in but all the other employees were fine.

Very good location! 500 m from harbour. Take the hotel when you are not very picky about cleaning.... and you need good place to stay in center. It has air conditioner. I was ready for total disaster ( by reading reviews) but at least our sheets were clean and room was clean (bathroom not so much). But staff was very nice and our airport transfer at 2 am ordered by hotel was super, new car and on time!! And with reasonable price!

The location is very nice- especially if you transfer from airport to any long distance bus, because you don’t need to go through city center! It’s quiet and clean, staff was super nice and reachable throughout - before and during late night arrival etc. We got nice early breakfast and they helped us with catching taxi to reach our bus.

The space was large enough for a family to stay and the well-decorated interior was very nice. The location is a bit outside the city center, but there are restaurants and a supermarket in the same building. And since the markets are nearby, it's great for shopping.

We had a lovely stay here. The hotel is in an ideal location and easy to find. The beach is perfect and always kept clean. The room was spacious with modern amenities and clean. Staff are really helpful and approachable. We tried the cakes and coffee from Grab & Go and it was nice, large portions. We also are at Twiga and the food was really nice - I tried the grilled prawns and salad. Breakfast was a combination of cold and hot items including fruits, cakes and egg station. I’ll be staying here again when next in Dar! Thank you!

Owned by a lovely Kenyan lady who will help you with anything you need. Delicious breakfast and home cooked dinners served on request. Lovely property with a large garden. Rooms are clean with ensuite bathroom and A/C, beds with mosquito net. Great location for us as we had to catch a bus to Arusha from a nearby bus terminal and fairly close to the airport. Great place to stay and value for money!

Great place to stay - location is perfect for airport or Tazara train station. Facilities are good and the meals are excellent. And as others have said - Brown is a fantastically helpful and accomodating host which is what makes it a lovely place to stay.
