The owner, an Italian couple, styled and rehabilitated the old actually 2 old traditional Zansibar houses in the old way. Nice to see and look at but on the costs of comfort (small steep stairs,dark rooms). The rooms are different, some quite spacy and nice, some very small, nearly no place to place the lugage. Couple very helpful and supportive. Nice very frequented restaurant on the roof. Breakfast ok. Very clean. Situated in the middle of the "medina" of Stone town, in walking distance to all attractions. On the other side that means during day time you hear the noice of the narrow streets, but at night it is quite.
On the negative side there is to mention the weak light (not enough to read a book), the weak internet, also only on the roof avaiable and that no very stable, no water bucket, when tape water cuts during the night. People with allergy against cats should avoid the place.
