Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. My bed was very comfy (I had a double room).
The communal bathroom and kitchen weren't modern but very clean.
Fantastic location in the centre of stone town, easy walking distance of lots of sights and the ferry to prison island etc.
WiFi had great coverage too!

The location was excellent, you could walk anywhere. The staff were lovely. Breakfast was simple but filling. The aircon and WiFi both worked very well. It was handy having an ATM right next door.. the bed was very comfortable.

The location of the room is good. Everything is in walking distance. The rooms are simple, but they are as described and clean. So if that is what you're looking for, this place is good.
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
Perfect location, great atmosphere. You feel like home. We stayed with teenage kids and they enjoyed youth hostel atmosphere. ( Wi-Fi and Air condition work very well). Host explained us how to get to the East coast by dalladalla and informed us how much it is supposed to cost. That was very helpful. Usually if you ask someone in Tanzania, they just organize an expensive taxi for you….
Amazing location. Stayed in the women's dorm. Felt more like a summer camp bunk than a hostel. Was very clean and wifi worked. Felt safe the entire time I was here. If you're a budget travel it is one of the better hostels I have been to.
Everyone was super friendly and ready to help! As soon as I booked I was contacted by an employee to ask if he could assist with anything. Immediately we arranged for a cheap airport pickup (20€) and a dinner that was awaiting us when we arrived since the kitchen closed before our arrival time. We had the rooftop terrace to ourselves! A great way to begin our Zanzibar adventure. Great location too. Close to beach and winding roads with shops!
Great location. Nice roof terrace (if you can be bothered to climb 7 flights of stairs). Cheap drinking water. Friendly, helpful staff. Comfy bed with mosquito nets. Felt safe at night. Quiet location.
As every youth hostel, it is quite cheap, so in this matter, it is as expected. The hostel is quite small, the bathroom is clean, the beds are made every day and you are given a clean towel at your arrival.
The location is strategic in the old Stone town. A stone's throw from the enchanting alleys, near the mercury house, the old fort and the night market. In truth, only the location can explain the price of this place which is above all a dormitory youth hostel
The hostel is a great location and the staff were keen to help with suggestions of where to go. It's very useful to have the cooking facilities also, as we are travelling on a budget! The balcony is a great place to sit.
