Very nice and clean property. The staff was very nice. There is not a free airport shuttle as it says on the hotel description. There is an outside company that they call which was good and it costs $10.

I was here for one night before returning back to Dar. It was a very easy check in process. The staff were helpful with the luggage and assisting me to my room. The first thing I noticed was how clean the property was. The room was gorgeous. They had all necessary amenities and we had a very quiet and calm night which was very much needed. It was also in a very convenient location, which gave us a little more time to sleep before leaving the next morning.
