Okay but not really good!
Cons:

The hotel is close to the airport, that`s why I stayed here. The rooms are quite spacious and nice, problem is the internet. I tried to book something online (which I couldn`t) and in the evening I tried to watch TV which also runs by internet (which didn`t work as well.) From a hotel of that price range I had expected a little bit more.

Pas agréable d’être racketté
Pros:

Je ne suis pas en mesure de juger vu ma déception

Cons:

J’ai dû payer un supplément pour ma femme, alors que j’avais une chambre double.
C’est de la faute de Booking selon l’hôtel.
Quand on fait une réservation, on prend une chambre double, mais ça veut pas dire que ça peut accueillir deux personnes ! C’est une hérésie !
Je suis mécontent, j’ai dû payer 85 $ en plus.
Ce n’est pas l’argent, c’est le faite d’être considéré Comme un porte-monnaie : d’une part arnaqué par Booking, et d’autre part, racketté par l’hôtel !
C’est honteux. Je compte résilier mon abonnement chez vous.
Je l’ai déjà fait dans votre filiale Agoda.
Vous ne travaillez pas pour nous. Vous avez une approche purement mercantile.
J’ai un nouveau regardé, ce qui a pu se passer pendant ma réservation. J’ai bien vu que ce n’est pas bien clair au moment de la confirmation, le nombre d’occupants. Je pense que c’est fait exprès pour flouer le client et devoir payer un supplément.

Totalt sett kan jag rekommendera boendet.
Pros:

Det va rent och fräscht och fantastiskt utsikt över havet
Serverar ingen alkohol kan vara bra att känna till men de löser om man vill ha en kall öl

Cons:

Frukosten va inte någon höjdare.
Ligger lite avsides ca 10$ med taxi till centrum.

Il miglior posto a Zanzibar
Pros:

Il posto in generale immerso tra il verde e il mare.
La cucina ottima, colazione molto buona.
WI-FI ottimo, aria accondizionata molto buona.
Personale sempre col sorriso.

Cons:

La struttura in sé è bellissima ma purtroppo un po malandata, avrebbe bisogno di una ristrutturazione almeno nella mia camera, c'era uno odore sgradevole nel bagno, anche gli sdrai dovrebbero essere un po più presentabili
