Buena relacion calidad precio y personal muy amable
Pros:

En general nada especialmente destacable, pero todo en buena linea. Buen desayuno, buena ubicación y habitación cómoda con un baño muy amplio.

Cons:

Los cuervos que pululan mientras desayunas en el comedor superior. Creo que con algun tipo de red se podia minimizar el problema. Probaron mi desayunO!!

Aspettative deluse. La posizione strategica dell’hotel non compensa le mancanza sulla qualità dei servizi
Pros:

Posizione strategica nel centro di stone town

Cons:

Insonorizzazione pessima (Galli che impedivano il riposo a qualsiasi ora)
Poca attenzione dello staff nelle pulizie , asciugamani mancanti
Poca attenzione e lentezza esasperante del servizio ristorazione: ok Pole Pole come filosofia di vita, ma 2 ore di attesa per una semplice insalata mi sembra assurdo
