Lieber außerhalb wohnen bzw. Stone Town zum Übernachten meiden

Pros: Rooftop-Restaurant. Badezimmer. Cons: Liegt in einer schäbigen Baustellengegend. Wir hatten das Deluxe Zimmer unten neben der Rezeption, das extrem dunkel und sehr laut war. Das Haus renoviert, aber wirkt trotzdem oll und muffig, Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist wirklich eine Unverschämtheit. Insgesamt ist Stone Town einfach furchtbar, wäre unser Flug nicht morgens um 8 Uhr gegangen, hätten wir auch nicht hier übernachtet. Ich würde das vermeiden. Es gibt nicht wirklich etwas zu sehen, es ist sehr laut (u.a. ein Iman übertönt den anderen auch nachts), es ist dreckig und die Menschen sind ex

Based on what was advertised on booking dot com verses in person arrival was not the same. I had to pay an additional amount to upgrade. Very unhappy.

The place was very nice to stay at. The location was perfect, you can walk about to the beach or nearby restaurants without any hassle.
