Clean fun ethical and tasty
Pros:

This is one of the few properties that are owned by locals in the city, and they are trying to self sustain through growing their own food and raising animals.

Everyone was super helpful, especially Ismael, who was so nice to offer a tour around the place and tell me about all the different trees, plants and animals in the farm (thank you ismael you’re the best)

The place was super clean, the room amenities were of good quality and the food was the yummiest I had in tanzania (the vegetable pizza was superior)

Cons:

Nothing really, it was perfect

I will not stay again
Pros:

The view was nice

Cons:

The ground staff were really kind, friendly, and helpful, which I truly appreciated. However, I experienced a few incidents that made my stay feel a bit uncomfortable and stressful.

Before arrival, I arranged an airport pickup with the Benson the head of reservation at the hotel. They initially quoted me a price, and when I mentioned I found another company, they agreed to match it. The driver who picked me up arrived in a very poor-condition car, and during the one-hour drive no water or basic hospitality was offered. I asked if he could help me get a SIM card, but he said all the shops were closed. I then asked if I could at least use his hotspot briefly to inform my family I arrived safely, but he said he had no data. Later I found out that he does he just didn’t want to share which felt a bit sad.

When we arrived at the hotel, the driver asked me to pay cash. I explained I needed change, but he did not have any and suggested taking my large bill into town to exchange it. Since he did not seem like an official hotel driver, I did not feel comfortable giving cash to someone I didn’t know. He also suggested taking me back into town immediately, but after a long flight and one-hour drive, all I wanted was water and breakfast. I asked if I could transfer the money or pay via PayPal to make things easier, but he refused. The situation became unnecessarily stressful until he eventually returned with change.

The room itself was decent, but housekeeping could be improved. I stayed for two nights, and the room was not cleaned during my stay, nor were the towels changed.

The checkout experience was also disappointing. I was asked to pay again for my accommodation even though it had already been prepaid. I had to wait around 20 minutes while they verified it with Benson, who was also the person that arranged the unofficial transfer driver.

Проживание не состоялось
Cons:

Я забронировала отель за несколько месяцев. Оплату списали. В итоге, когда я уже прилетела в Танзанию - получила письмо от букинг, что отель не может меня принять, моё бронирование аннулировали. На моё письмо, отель не ответил. И деньги за бронирование до сих пор не вернули.

There is potential.
Pros:

Vriendelijkheid personeel en de buitenomgeving. Het is een toffe plek met een gunfactor.

Cons:

Onze farmhouse kamer op de begane grond had helaas wel wat kuren. Onder andere de voordeur ging niet goed op slot en er was een overstroming onder de badkuip gedurende een regenachtige nacht.

Het hotelteam heeft ons bij alles altijd goed proberen te helpen. Een kamerwissel naar de bovenverdieping heeft veel opgelost, maar helaas hebben de badkamers slechte ventilatie met alle gevolgen van dien. Dit is bij uitchecken als directe feedback aan the staff gecommuniceerd.

The Best Between Arusha and Moshi!
Pros:

Absolutely perfect. The best stay in Moshi, by far. Amazing food, rooms, grounds, staff and owner. Quiet, clean air, like living in a garden. My highest review for hotel in Tanzania. Beyond expectations.

Cons:

That I had to leave for work each day. I wanted to spend all my time there. Seriously.

Nice enough.
Pros:

Attractive property. Very polite and professional seeming staff. Very comfortable bed and nice bathroom.

Cons:

We could not figure out how to drain the bathtub…

WiFi occasionally cut out and password wouldn’t always work.

Payment was a bit confused - told to pay later, for instance, then when the time came different machines had to be fetched and people woken up…

Restaurant food passable but not good, not always resembling menu description either.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Shose Farmhouse Chalets and Campsite and can highly recommend it to anyone visiting Moshi.

Our room was very modern, tastefully designed, and well equipped. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. We enjoyed delicious meals in the restaurant located in the beautiful garden, both at breakfast and dinner. From the hotel, we had a great view of Kilimanjaro mountain.

We also liked the farm-to-table concept. They have their own farm directly on the premises. One of the staff members kindly gave us a very interesting tour of the farm. Asante sana to the whole team - we truly enjoyed our stay.
