Only suggestion is please get pest control before the guest arrives
Pros:

The breakfast is extremely good and very worth value for money . After I changed my room they gave a suite which was extremely big and very nice and comfortable

Cons:

The cockroach in my room on the very first day and after 2 days was able to change my room because they said that it had to undergo pest control even after it had been cleaned properly. Also it is very difficult to go via elevator again and again as the hotel rooms start at around 15 or 17 floor .

Five days, zero complaints
Pros:

Five days here and I loved every bit of it. Julieth, Jamila, and Phillipo the gym instructor were outstanding, every single day, the kind of staff that make you want to come back. My room had a big window with a magnificent view of Dar es Salaam City Centre, which was the perfect way to start each morning. Highly recommend!

Great experience altogether
Pros:

Great service from entrance to exit. Jamila who served the conference was very warm and professional. The food in the buffets were excellent but the deserts were simply next level.

Good value, but cleanliness needs to improve a lot
Pros:

Nice location in the centre of the city, near some shops and within walking distance of the sea. Rooftop restaurant with a view of the city. Atmosphere is very formal and business-like (a lot of business dinners happen here).
Not all staff is helpful, and I had an event where the reception called my room in odd hours to sort a registration issue (once at almost 11PM and on the following day at 06:40, interrupting my sleep).
Rooms were OK, the bathroom could use a refurbishment and the cleanliness needs an urgent improvement as I saw small cockroaches roaming about in the bathroom and also in the room. Also saw cockroaches in the Conference room of the same hotel.
