Good location off main road. Beautiful grounds. Clean and comfortable rooms. Service was excellent for the most part. Laundry cost a fortune and housekeeping lost a pair of expensive pants. Air conditioning only minimally worked.

Good location near the main Moshi Arusha road and yet quiet, clean rooms, great garden. We arrived late and had dinner at one of the restaurants, the menu was a little limiting.

Total disaster !!
I changed the room because the one we were allocated at first had a funky smell. The front desk sent a welcome message addressing my friend and I as Mr. and Mrs. even after they knew we were both men; I think it was totally unprofessional and disrespectful. The second room had single bed even though I booked for double bed.

Good food.
Love the food here. Service is great and the option of room service is wonderful. They need to put menus in the rooms or at least a list of numbers to call as the phones are not labeled. Pool is beautiful.
