Dirty and prostitution happens here!! You aren’t safe!! ##### Catherine Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### RAMA 27 Jan 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel has a lively atmosphere and a convenient location, making it a popular spot in Dar es Salaam. However, my stay was less enjoyable due to several issues. The rooms were not well-maintained, with noticeable cleanliness problems, including an unpleasant smell of cigarettes. The noise from the bar downstairs made it difficult to get a good night's rest, especially late into the night. While the social scene and bar might appeal to some guests, those looking for a quiet and clean environment may want to explore other options. Improvements in room hygiene and noise insulation would greatly enhance the guest experience. ##### RAMA Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 2 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Not for everyone, but if you are lonely male it's ok. Downstairs there is a bar with hookers, but the food is rather bad. Breakfasts are like homemade and lack variety, but the staff is very friendly. At first I wanted to move when I saw the room, cause it doesn't look like in the photos, but everything was working including ac so in the end I'm satisfied. Very convenient location. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 30 Mar 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Please Don't Stay Here I wasn't given the room I booked. The pictures on this app don't represent what they offer. Wi-Fi didn't work. The bar plays loud music at night. I was accused of having extra people in my room when I didn't. It seems that the bar is where men are trying to hook up with women for hire. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### RAMA 4 Jan 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities The toilet in my room would not flush the way is supposed to. ##### RAMA Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Hossam 21 Jan 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We are having major electric shortage causing me and other guest not having access to electricity, air-conditioning and water for the last 5 hours... I definitely would demand a refund for all this inconvenience... We can't even use restroom for #1!!!!! That's absolutely unprofessional. ##### Hossam ### 2/10 Terrible #### Katie 26 Jun 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Horrific experience We were immediately uncomfortable walking through the downstairs restaurant in order to reach reception due to prostitutes bumping up against creepy old white men and the many, MANY roaches crawling all around the ground and reception entrance. A sign at reception gave notice that the hotel was currently under fumigation (spraying for bugs), and the receptionist was very vague about the 'pests and bugs' being the reason. In our room, there was an awful chemical smell which made breathing difficult. My husband has asthma and ended having breathing problems all night, something that has never been an issue in the past when traveling. Our room was on the top floor but the noise from the hotel's bar was overwhelming until well past 1am and kept us awake, even with earplugs in. At one point while attempting to order food from the connected restaurant on the ground floor, my husband found a roach crawling on his back! This sucker was easily 3 inches long! After another roach crawled up his pant leg we scrambled to our room hungry. It was way too late to book another hotel and we were both exhausted from traveling. Unfortunately neither of us slept because we were constantly checking our room for bugs and it was too noisy to even try. It was too late at night to get another hotel but we left immediately the next day. Despite voicing our concerns the hotel (and expedia) did not reimburse us and still charged us for the extra night that we did not even stay there. ##### Katie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Can be good for the price Before our trip we ordered middle class rooms. But we got little lesser rooms for the the first night and then upgrade to the best vip rooms for the rest of our stay. The location is good, televisions are not. Don't get the cheapest room option. Upper rooms are better. There is a bar downstairs and it can cause some noise in late evenings. The customers are mostly single men. Do your homework for less surprises. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Donna 22 Feb 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities You definitely get what you pay for! I had to switch out of 3 bedrooms cause they either had mold or just plain smelled. Finally the fourth bedroom I was placed in was relatively clean and nice. The receptionist was very helpful and understanding. The location was perfect for me which is why I didn’t want to leave. ##### Donna Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas 12 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Value for money Enkelt boende men rent och fräscha rum.

Breakfast was a nice surprise. The hotel room was clean and with good air conditioning. Good wifi! ##### Hanna Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 2 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great, walkable location in the Oyster Bay/Masaki Peninsula area.

Ophold, service og værelse var helt godt. Det eneste minus er hotellets tilstand - mangel på vedligeholdelse Det trænger til en lettere renovering / bedre vedligeholdelse. ##### Bent Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Pierre 29 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Avoid for business trip, perhaps ok for a backpack As you may guess from the name, this place is first a bar, and then, way after, perhaps a hotel. Your room is basically just above the bar, so sleeping without earplugs before 1am on a Saturday will be complicated. The staff doesn't speak English, or not at all which is unprofessional for a capital city hotel. Hence every communication is hard. The double bed is actually two single beds next to each other, which of course is uncomfortable if you would like to sleep in the middle of your bed. Even the sheets are for 2 single beds. The shower is not separated from the bathroom, so when you have a shower, the entire bathroom is wet. The WiFi was either not working at all, or not sufficient to be used in the room. But perhaps most annoyingly was the fact that the bar is full of prostitutes waving to you as you go upstairs to your room. Also quite difficult to feel home in that context. Unless you're a prostitute ? Room size was good, as well as the AC, breakfast was ok but starting too late at 8am. Poor value for money in general, 50$ a night in my case. ##### Pierre Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Great location, practical hotel Lovely large room with fridge and table areas. En-suite was functional but not overly pleasant. Some music could be heard from bar downstairs. Good location with shops and beach nearby. Expensive but good airport transfer. Safe place with nice staff. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### markus 1 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort the staff is always friendly and willing to help, just ask and they try immediately. ##### markus Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Gilbert 10 Jan 2019 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort The place was as described.

Das Frühstück und das Zimmer war zwar ok, aber nicht für den angebotenen Preis. Die Präsentierten Photos sind mehrheitlich irreführend. ##### Silvan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Reza 7 Oct 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### Low Cost Escape Away Spot from Dar City Good low cost hotel to spend a wonderful evening and enjoy the great location during the day in Oyster bay. KFC,Pizza Hut,Sub Way, Samaki Samaki(sea food), Mystic Masala and Khana Khazana(indian food) and Oyster bay Farmer's Market at walking distance. Great meeting point for expats during the evening. Enjoy good food, live music, watch football on big screen at hotel until 2.00 a.m. Great for solo backpackers to escape away from Dar City centre. ##### Reza Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Dear Lisbon - Gallery House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Dear-Lisbon-Gallery-House.h20174674.Hotel-Information) > > [Koora Hotel by Sandglass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Aguti-Lodge-Reserve.h33594530.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in DIFC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/DIFC-Dubai-Hotels.0-n553248635212849588-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [City Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-City-Guest-House.h4464528.Hotel-Information) > > [Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Aparthotel-Adagio-Edinburgh-Royal-Mile.h16281979.Hotel-Information) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Taghazout](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taghazout-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d6153242--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Novotel Bristol Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Novotel-Bristol-Centre.h18371.Hotel-Information) > > [Michelangelo Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kos-Hotels-Michelangelo-Resort-And-Spa.h2486439.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterpark in Dalaman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dalaman-Hotels-Waterpark-Hotel.0-0-d1031-twaterparkhotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Le Châtelain](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brussels-Hotels-Le-Chatelain.h114824.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Salisbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salisbury-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d5679-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [ICON Rosetó](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palma-De-Mallorca-Hotels-ICON-Roseto-By-Petit-Palace.h20076079.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Hampshire-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d603237-tLuxuryHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in San Sebastián](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Sebastian-Hotels.d6084360.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency Dar Es Salaam, The Kilimanjaro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dar-Es-Salaam-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dar-Es-Salaam.h1320811.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Nouvelair](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nouvelair-Flights.cBJ.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Ryanair Manchester (MAN) to Rome (CIA) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/ryanair-from-manchester-to-ciampino/fr/man/cia) > > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Faaa (PPT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/ppt/london-to-papeete) > > [Flights from Carlisle (CAX) to London (LON-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cax/lon/carlisle-to-london) > > [Flights from Salcea (SCV) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/scv/lhr/suceava-to-london) ### Cars > [Car hire in Colombia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Colombia.d38.Car-Hire-Destinations) ### Activities > [Things to do in Aluthgama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Aluthgama.d6348269.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Sestri Levante Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sestri-Levante.d11087.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
