Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt! Das Hotel ist schön und sauber und zentral gelegen. Die Stuff war freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. So hatten sie uns z.B. auch geholfen eine Sim-Karte zu erhalten. Alles in allem hatte wir also eine super Zeit hier.

L’hôtel est très bien situé dans stonetown, très propre et très confortable ! Le personnel est très accueillant et bienveillant, une équipe génial ! Et bien évidement le restaurant est largement à la hauteur avec une cuisine fraîche, variée et locale, l’approvisionnement du poisson se fait en fonction de votre choix pour le repas du soir. Merci pour tous ! ASSANTE SANA !
