La atención del personal muy buena y el jardín muy lindo.
Tienen un poco de problemas con la organización y coordinación de la reservas. Estuvimos ahí y nos pusieron en cualquier habitación sin importar lo que habíamos reservado.

Der beste Service den ich in Tansania je erlebt habe. Das Personal was unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir konnten unser Gepäck in der Unterkunft lassen, während unserer mehrtägigen Safari. Wir wurden auch nach Mitternacht vom Flughafen abgeholt (unser Flug hatte eine grausame Verspätung). Der Fahrer war trotz der späten Stunde so freundlich und hat uns sicher zur Unterkunft gefahren.
Wir haben aufgrund des günstigen Preises nicht so viel erwartet und wurden positiv überrascht. Das Abendessen und auch das Frühstück waren soooo lecker und frisch zubereitet. Auch der Kundenkontakt über die Buchungsplattform war freundlich und schnell. Ach wenn nur alle Unterkünfte so einen Kundenservice haben könnten. Die Zimmer sind in Ordnung- erinnert mehr an ein Backpacker als an ein Hotel. Aber wenn man keinen Luxus braucht ist man hier zu 100% richtig

Neema was very kind.
The compound was small and very neat.
They confirmed my booking and when I got there with my children I was told that it's fully booked and we had to look elsewhere for accommodation after 4 hours of driving to the location

Beautiful rooms, lovely staff. Good and included breakfast and for 10$ a tasty dinner. The rooms (tents, outside) are really good. Nice outdoor area
the mattress could be softer and there could be more light in the bathroom.

Lovely place, with well-kept rooms, polite staff, and convenient access to Arusha town. I Would recommend it 100%

The room upstairs with private bathroom is lovely and bright and spacious. The bathroom is old and tired but does the job. The balcony is a lovely place to sit and enjoy.
The whole house is light and bright with plenty of seating options. The garden has some great swinging beds and the top and bottom baclony have comfortable couches to lounge on.
Private and shared bathrooms were old and tired, and not that clean.

Nice garden, very kind staff, special Lucy,
Bed is very hard
5.0 / 5.0
The garden is incredibly lush. There are trees, grass and a couple of floating beds where you can nap or chill. There is also a fire pitch and staff usually lights up a fire at night. The town is easily reachable (15 minutes by dalla dalla, a cramped bus that costs 500 shilling per person). The staff was really welcoming and attentive. Breakfast was great! A bowl of fruit or fresh juice, then 2 eggs your way with 2 toasts and a pancake (that you could fill with peanut butter and jam), sometimes a slice of avocado. It gets you ready to start the day.
I think this place is exceptional.

Lucy the host is a good local chef. Every meal breakfast and diner is delicious and it are big meals. Enough for the hole day during your trip in Arusha. If you wanna wash your clothes, lucy is there for you. The rooms are clean and very big. The vibe is chill and cozy. I was alone and on my first day lucy assist me with a ride to my day activity, because i had no idea how to transfer. It feels like you're home in another country

Lucy was very kind, she waited for us after our 3h delay at the airport. We had dinner 3 of the 5 nights, home-made tasted very good. We felt like home. Also the rooms are spacious. And there was a very nice relaxing garden with very friendly dogs. Their rooms came universal plug.
There's a disco nearby, if you stay a Saturday evening you might hear them. Bring some earplugs.
