The hotel has a lively atmosphere and a convenient location, making it a popular spot in Dar es Salaam. However, my stay was less enjoyable due to several issues. The rooms were not well-maintained, with noticeable cleanliness problems, including an unpleasant smell of cigarettes. The noise from the bar downstairs made it difficult to get a good night's rest, especially late into the night. While the social scene and bar might appeal to some guests, those looking for a quiet and clean environment may want to explore other options. Improvements in room hygiene and noise insulation would greatly enhance the guest experience.
