    I liked the location upfront the beach which offers every days an amazing view. The environnement was really nice, it's usually full of young backpackers so really easy to meet new people and hang out with. The housekeepers makes a good job. The host Zuri and Kayse are nice. There is a security guide everynight for our safety. The brothers Abdul and Anu are very nice, also Anu is a taxi driver which offers really good price to go everywhere. I used his services to Jambiani, Nungwi and Stone Town.
