    The location was a bit difficult to find at first, but once I knew where it was, it was easy to navigate. The staff at Gulf Global Bed & Breakfast were helpful and eager to assist with any requests. The room had a fridge and kettle, which was convenient. The wifi connection was decent as well.

    There were a few drawbacks during my stay. The stairs to the second floor were poorly lit and uneven, so I had to be careful while climbing them.

    This place is a convenient base for a trip in Zanzibar, and the airport is not too far away, which was great. The location met our expectations.

    This hotel offers great value for money, with reasonable prices and attention to detail. Located in the center of Stone Town, it is just a short walk away from the historical center and close to the airport. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure that basic amenities are provided in the rooms. The breakfast, which includes a variety of options, is served with care.

    All was satisfactory, no improvements needed.

    The location of the hotel was ideal for exploring the city and very convenient for getting around. We called a taxi and it arrived within five minutes. The room was large and could comfortably accommodate a couple. We enjoyed the ample storage space for our bags and clothes. The breakfast was good, and we especially liked the variety of options. We appreciated that the staff was friendly and always willing to help.

    The bathroom was a bit small, but we didn't spend much time in it anyway. Some minor problems with the air conditioning and the hot water in the shower were a little frustrating, but we were able to manage.

    I had a great stay in this hotel, which is located in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore all the nearby attractions on foot. The staff were incredibly helpful and went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed during my stay. Additionally, the hotel was very clean and had excellent facilities, including free wifi and a delicious breakfast.

    None.

    The hotel is in a great area close to shops and the night market. The breakfast was okay and the wifi was fast enough to stream movies on my laptop.

    The room was quite dirty and smelled bad. The air conditioning didn't work properly which made it difficult to sleep.

    AC worked, good location, helpful staff, terrace for breakfast, fridge and kettle in room.

    Nothing, all great.

    This hotel is a great find for those on a budget. The prices are incredibly reasonable, especially considering the central location in Stone Town. You can easily walk to the historic center and even to the ferry without needing a taxi. The staff are very friendly and attentive, making sure you have everything you need during your stay. The rooms are basic, but they have a comfortable king size bed by the window, which is a nice touch. The breakfast included in the price is a bonus, although I must say the bread could use some improvement.

    All in all, everything was more than okay!

    This hotel is located in the heart of the town, near the historical center, and is a stone's throw away from the ferry, eliminating the need for a taxi. The rooms are comfortable and provide great WiFi. One can enjoy a clean and maintained guesthouse with free Wifi service.

    The service received at this guesthouse was poor, with unreliable and untrustworthy staff.

    I had a great experience at this hotel in Stone Town. the location couldn't be better - right in the center of Stone Town, close to the historical center and the ferry terminal. It made exploring the city so convenient, and I didn't even need to take a taxi. Secondly, the staff were friendly and attentive, making sure I had everything I needed during my stay. Lastly, the rooms were comfortable, with a king-size bed that provided a great night's sleep after a long day of exploring.

    All was well; a fantastic stay overall.
