Una pesadilla de alojamiento en Arusha
La decoración exterior y Vicent, el chico que tiene el dueño en la recepción que tiene que aguantar las malas formas
El dueño intentó estafarnos pidiéndonos dinero por supuesto robo de botellas de alcohol de personas ajenas a mi grupo, y aún reconociéndonos que no fuimos nosotros, nos pedía dinero. El acceso es nefasto y la ubicación es muy dificil, incluso les costó llegar a los autóctonos de Arusha. En toda la estancia no conseguimos tener luz ni agua caliente, fue una auténtica pesadilla.

Nice place for short stays
Very welcoming. The service is very good and the ambience is very relaxed.
The shower and toilet are just combined in one. The hot water it’s just too hot so ended up having a cold shower. Very hard to find and the roads are rough by car if the person in not used to it.

Superb
The hostel is very cozy and has a nice fire spot and chilling area outside. The stuff was very friendly and helpful. It was a bit difficult to find the way, because it is a bit outside the city, but therefore also a cool spot outside the noise and rush of the city.
