8/10 Very good

Very friendly, helpful staff and clean facilities. There is a lot of construction going on around the airport making transportation challenging. But the staff at this motel provide airport transportation that makes up for it. I recommend this as a comfortable place if you have a layover at the Dar airport.

Gets the job done
We booked a night at the Transit Motel Airport to cool our heels for several hours before an 11pm flight. Pros - very good airlport shuttle service, pleasant staff, clean room. Cons - poor neighborhood, small room, shower looked inadequate, no soap in bathroom. I see that they seem to have a multi-night minimum stay now, which makes absolutely no sense. An airport hotel is almost by definition an overnight stay, and we wouldn't have wanted to stay more than 1 night there at most.
Louise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, friendly staff with transportation to and from Julius Nyrere Airport. I stay at Transit Hotel Airport during my annual travel to Tanzania which requires regional flights from the Airport. Reliable driver arranged by the Motel. During my last stay the Motel was under renovation and no longer had in-house food preparation with LONG waits for a meal. Hopefully this will be better in 2024! A great value and pleasant experience.

4/10 Fair

No water when I got there but they filled the tank soon after I asked.
Ruth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Average
Nothing really interesting to mention here but the dishonesty of its shuttle driver which told us a higher price than we were told in the reception. The room is very basic but enough for a night or two, the strength of this hotel is how near the airport it is which is much appreciated considering most of the Main Street that leads you to the airport is under construction leading to longer times to get to the airport if you decide to stay at the city centre
Nerea, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really good experience
The stay at Transit Motel Airport did go over our expectations! The staff was so friendly, helpful and kind. The rooms was bigger then we thought they would be. Also we ended up using their driver to the airport, because our Uber did not show up in time. Therefor the driver woke up in the middle of the night, without anything pre scheduled. The motel taxi was also cheaper then Uber. A big thank you to the staff for taking such good care of us, and making our stay great!
Tuva, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

it was very loud and dine didn't com for 1,5 hours
Nick, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Definitely the worst choice to stay before an early flight. There is no proprer road and it's quite noisy outside. The room itself is also very badly equipment with old aircon and a fan that produce a lot of noise. The bedsheets and mattress felt like they are made of plastic because it was really uncomfortable and made you sweat like crazy. Never again
