Niente. Pessimo.
Hotel se così si possa definire pessimo, camera maleodorante e bagno sporco e ingiallito. Per fortuna abbiamo pernottato solo una notte.

Avis très négatif sur cet hôtel : Absolument déplorable 🫤. L'expérience a été tout sauf agréable. Dès l'entrée, une odeur nauséabonde a envahi l'ensemble de la chambre, créant une atmosphère insupportable. Il était difficile de déterminer la source de cette puanteur, mais cela a sérieusement compromis toute tentative de profiter de mon séjour. L'idée de fuir cet endroit m'a traversé l'esprit à maintes reprises. À éviter à tout prix !
L'état déplorable de la chambre, des toilettes, des meubles, de la télévision, bref, de tout l'établissement, a été une déception totale. Les installations semblaient n'avoir subi aucune maintenance depuis des lustres. La chambre était dans un état délabré, les toilettes étaient insalubres, les meubles étaient usés et ébréchés, et la télévision ne fonctionnait même pas. C'est une honte que de tels établissements soient répertoriés sur Booking. Cette expérience a été un avertissement clair sur l'importance de faire des recherches approfondies avant de choisir un hôtel. Booking devrait sérieusement revoir sa liste d'hôtels, car cet établissement ne mérite en aucun cas d'y figurer. Un conseil : passez votre chemin !

the reception staff was trying to help. if not for her we would have left.
They would not honour the price listed on Booking.com
Spoke to "Fred" the boss about the pricing and he tried many ways to get "money" - Booking.com exchange rate is wrong, Booking.com did not include tax (on the booking it showed it did)

The staff helped me to find an ATM, and they subtracted the withdrawal fee from the room cost. The guests in the restaurant/bar area were helpful and social.
There was no wifi, I couldn’t pay by card, and the aircondition didn’t work. The staff were unable to tell me where to find data or wifi. Somewhat dirty in the room and there was no toilet paper. Also, it was cheaper to buy in person (not through booking.com). I had to pay 45000 TSH but I saw in the check-in book that others had paid 10000-20000.
Woke up at 4.50 due to a long call to prayer from a mosque.

The location is good, everything is around that area
There is a bar just before you get to the reception, my wife and daughters were constantly sexually harassed by drunkards,this hotel is good for people who don’t care about personal decency, even if you complain to the management nothing can be done, because that hotel rooms are mostly for short time sessions, there is a lot of prostitution activity during the night.most rooms are turned to brothel at night.On checking out, a lady receptionist cheated my wife and charged her more money.

In a middle of the city
One of the worst hotels or places to stay in Tanzania..honestly, I would not advise anyone to book with them..even though it was the second visit. I contacted them before booking and confirming the negatives that I found on my first visit..they assured me that everything changed for the better, but unfortunately it changed For the worst..I have pictures as proof of how bad this place is..I am sad that I trusted them and booked with them for the second time.

The location is great, next to Aura Mall and fast bus station 🚉.
Our room pillows and mattress are comfortable, there's refrigerator to keep the food, receptionist are nice.
Internet is not stable, waiters are unfriendly, entrance could be improved since it's not family friendly entering by a bar. 🍺
Couch is very dirty. 🛋️
