Pros:

Personeel was vriendelijk

Cons:

De kamer was gedateerd, de bedden steen hard. De badkamer was erg oud. Douche nodig toe aan vervanging. Het ontbijt was in een andere ruimte dan op de fotos en beperkt. De foto's zien er echt anders uit en geven een vertekend beeld.

Ugodan boravak sa svim potrebnim sadržajem.
Pros:

Odličan smještaj u blizini centra. Sobe čiste i osoblje ljubazni, svaku večer špricaju sredstva protiv insekata.
Restoran na vrhu zgrade sa pogledom na grad.

Cons:

Hotel bi mogao omogućiti prostoriju za fitness ili na vanjskoj površini napraviti fitness rekvizite.

Great Place to Stay in Arusha!
Pros:

I stayed here on three separate nights and enjoyed my stay. The front desk was helpful arranging transportation to and from the airport, were extremely friendly and welcoming! The property grounds are well-maintained and the restaurant has vegetarian options as well. I’d definitely stay here again on my next visit to Tanzania!
