Good value and generally kind and good service. Breakfast was decent with some day-to-day variety. Room was in fair (not excellent) condition when we arrived; but they eventually fixed all major problems. Excellent A/C and no bugs. One watch out was Expedia claimed rooms had safes; but our room did not. Their solution (which they did immediately on request) was to bring in a safe from elsewhere. They were not persuaded by the concern that safes should be bolted to the wall from the inside. Besides that, I would rate this hotel as very secure; front entrance is staffed all night and it’s in a larger building that is also guarded.

I stayed here 4 nights and enjoyed my stay very much. The bed and pillow were very comfortable. The shower always had hot water. The buffet breakfast was always delicious and the server Hosianna was very kind and helpful. My only complaint is that I wished the Wi-Fi was available in the restaurant and lobby as well. It was strong in the room I rented.

Worse hotel
Very old rooms. Not renovated. I saw a cockroach in the bathroom. The bed and the bedsheets were very old as and light brown instead of white as it is been used for so long. I booked for 3 days but I left the hotel early move into another hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
My stay was pleasant. I especially loved the food, it was a little overpriced but good. The reception desk was very helpful and friendly. The only downside was house keeping. We once left our room and travelled to the city centre only to return after 2 hours and found it not cleaned. They later came in at around 3pm as we were in to have it cleaned which i declined. And then during our last day, a super rude house keeping lady came to our room at 9.45am as were packing and told us that she wanted to clean. We told her that were getting ready to check out as the check out time indicated was supposed to be 11am. She told us to hurry up and leave as she wanted to do her job. I found it offensive that staff should rush you while you've not overstayed.

Avoid this hotel due to rude staff !
This is one of the hotels to avoid if you want to experience the good side of Tanzanian hospitality. We booked two executive rooms for staff for their business trip to Dar using Bookings.com, and upon arrival was our staff faced with rude stupidity. The staff did acknowledge confirmed and paid bookings made using hotels.com, they disputed the payment, and eventually provided wrong rooms. The manager had to step in, and hours after check-in was the proper booked rooms available. (It cannot be the customers' job to ensure that staff is trained in using online bookings facilities) Room service was terribly slow, and when they finally showed up, food was cold and specific ordered items where missing. The staff was in generally very rude and hostile We will in the future disregard this option in Dar internally as well as externally - it's simply not worth the hassle.
