Location was brilliant as it is walking distance to the beachfront which is very lively in the evening. Our host is the best, engages with her guests checking on our well being and satisfaction. Breakfast is basic but lunch and dinner were fantastic, you are really spoilt for choice and well prepared. Service was generally good with all the staff always willing to help. There is good vibes and great ambience in the courtyard and very peaceful.

    I had the most wonderful experience staying here From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine sense of welcome. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable, memorable, and truly special. The homestay itself was a cozy haven, impeccably clean, and tastefully decorated. The room I stayed in was not only spacious and well-appointed but also had a homely charm that made me feel relaxed and at ease. The attention to detail in every aspect of the accommodation was truly impressive

    Great hostel in the very best neighbourhood of Dar es Salaam! Kibe the host is a great person and good host always willing to help, we really felt comfortable and at home during the 5 days we stayed there.
