The hosts, Olivia and her husband, were incredibly friendly and accommodating, even allowing us to stay a few extra hours beyond the checkout time. The neighborhood is safe, convenient, and everything you need is within walking distance. The property is well-equipped with essentials such as reliable water and electricity, ensuring a comfortable stay.

Given the intense heat in Dar es Salaam, one would expect air conditioning (AC) to be available throughout the apartment. Unfortunately, this was not the case, as the living room and kitchen lacked AC. For foreigners unaccustomed to such hot weather, constant use of the AC is a necessity, leading to rapid consumption of electricity tokens. However, the host did not account for this and even requested that we cover the cost of additional electricity once the initial supply ran out, which was quite uncomfortable and unexpected. Additionally, some kitchen utensils were broken, and there were notable missing items such as a dish drainer, baking dishes, and bowls, which made cooking less convenient.
