La chambre est bien équipée avec une bonne literie quand il s'agit d'un seul grand matelas.
La climatisation marche bien.
La chambre est spacieuse.
La salle de bains plus que correcte
Le petit-déjeuner est très bien (boisson chaude, divers choix en oeufs, bacon, fruits frais, jus de fruits...)
Le bar et le restaurant de l'hôtel au rez-de-chaussée
Le personnel
Les gérants
L'attention portée à chacune de mes demandes (manager, femme de ménage, réceptionniste,)
La propreté des chambres et l'attention des femmes de ménage
L'effort des propriétaires (ou gérants) de rénover l'ensemble bar/restaurant/hôtel
L'emplacement dans le quartier Masaki : petit supermarché, bar, restaurant, discothèque à proximité
J'y retournerai volontiers lors de mes prochaines vacances
Je n'ai pas de critique particulière mis à part le fait que dans une chambre équipée d' un grand lit double, que j'ai occupé pendant 2 nuits , il y a 2 petits matelas l'un à côté de l'autre, au lieu d'un grand : pas très agréable quand on se trouve au milieu.
Tout était correct pour moi :
Le personnel est agréable et réactif.
Pas de souci particulier.
Agréable séjour, même quand j'y suis retourné une seconde fois.
J'y retournerai volontiers lors de mes prochaines vacances.

Prisvärt, snabb fixat när kran till dusch gick sönder. Glad och trevlig personal.
Väldigt lyhört mot gatan. Ganska tunna gardiner så det blev ljust tidigt i rummet.

Perfectly located hotel and compared to other offers in the area high value for money. Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean yet a bit worn down.
Would not recommend staying on the weekend as the bar downstairs is likely very loud.
10.0 / 10.0
The hotel is simple and perfectly located next to restaurants, and bars. Not far from the city centre and beach.
It has a bar that serves good food and has the most amazing staff. A great thanks to Amoury at reception and both Ally at the bar.
8.0 / 10.0
The staff at this guest house is exceptionally helpful. The room was comfortable in terms of its size. The breakfast is also very good. At the Q-Bar Bar area, one can also enjoy really good food. The WiFi is really fast, especially if you need to work remotely, even if you want to access your favourite streaming services. This is really good value for money when you travel on a tight budget.
The mattress and bed linen are old and due for replacement. There is also clearly a lack of towels as when I arrived there was only one towel, and I had to request additional towels, but even these need replacement as these have been washed just too many times.

The location was ideal. Close to shops, other bars and the beach. Room was a perfect size with comfortable king size bed, mosquito nets, cupboard with safe, study desk and lots of windows making it light and bright.
Great having the bar down stairs to enjoy music, sports and a drink. The breakfast room was also a lovley spot to meet in the morning or have casual meetings any other time. A really warm and friendy place would stay again
Bathroom was a little small
Stairs in the building are odd sizes and quite dangerous
The bar music does get loud at night but was expecting this

The vibe, the location. The rooms are spacious with A/C and a fridge, the shower is hot and has plenty of water. If you like to party and have fun, this is the place to stay in Dar

The staff was very nice and helpful, answering all my questions. The breakfast was very good and the whole place had a good atmosphere. I have especially liked the vibes on the night when also the bar downstairs was working. And I had one dinner at the bar - it was really delicios!
The TV was not functioning (not that I have needed it, but I tried to turn it on and there were no available channels without subscription)

At the reception they refused to take payment in "small usd notes" it was ridiculous so I had to pay by card
The room stinks a lot with sewage, the towels are worn and old
