Happy in Zanzibar

Friendly staff, very obliging. Food great, room lovely, appreciated balcony for views.
Dianne, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not as expected

Staff was friendly, the food was okay, besides the ceasar salad that was sub par. Hotel shop had expired products (should really review the stock) bought a pepsi that was expired 6 months ago. The pool area was nice, but the water in the pool felt dirty, even though just being cleaned. Would also be transparant to mention that the hotel is just NeXT to a mosque, that kept us awake all night due to non stop activity.
