Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Honestly, I travel a lot and I'm not writing this to be mean, but this hotel should not even be on your radar - it shouldn't even be on Orbitz. It's not clean, both rooms they gave us options for had a sulphary smell, and I have picutres how how bad the toilets are (stains, smells, etc..). It looks nothing like the photos. We got in at 11pm so we couln't change the hotel, but we checked out first thing in the morning and booked another hotel. Things to note if you are traveling with someone slightly older - therea re stairs everywhere. The staff were also very weird. They simply didn't want to be there. This was very unlike the rest of my expeirence in Zanzibar - I found the locals to be extremely nice, but the people that work here just looked and acted miserable.

惊喜的酒店
惊喜有三:1酒店特别大,大堂就出奇的大,到房间还要走很多路。房间特别大,和总统套房差不多,有走廊,有沙发,还有卧室,一室一厅,估计有50多平米。层高也很高,估计有4米。采光充足。床也特别大。美中不足的就是电视太小了,房间大距离远,看不清楚。2有烧水壶,有免费的茶包和速溶咖啡。除中日韩,一般很难再其他国家的酒店能看到这些设备。3早餐是自助餐,东西很多,水果饮料面包调料一堆,还有炸鱼,虽然很多吃不惯,但和其他酒店的早餐比,还是很惊喜的。
