    secure location
    responsive kitchen
    scalding shower
    mold issue
    old bedding

    The location offers a sense of security, making it easy to stroll outside without worry. The kitchen's responsiveness to requests added a nice touch to the experience.

    The shower water was only scalding, which didn’t do any favors. I also found mold by the sink, which is a real deal-breaker. To top it off, there was only one towel upon arrival, and the bedding seemed past its prime, needing a solid update.

    moldy shower
    poor hygiene

    the stay at Q-Bar was almost delightful, until I encountered the moldy shower head and the absolute, revolting smell. I mean, I expected to be treated like royalty, maybe an upgrade? but instead, I got a room with questionable hygiene. I just couldn’t give it a good review due to these tragic disappointments.

    cozy room
    tasty breakfast
    lively atmosphere
    tricky stairs

    Staying at this cozy spot with my family and cousin was delightful. The huge room featured beautiful wooden furniture and lots of light. Breakfast was a treat with fresh fruit and pressed juice. We enjoyed the lively atmosphere downstairs with good music.

    My wife says that the stair access was tricky, especially with our kids.

    Had an awesome trip with friends. The spacious room was ideal for us, and the bar area had a chill vibe. We enjoyed exploring the nearby beach and local markets, which were just a short walk away. Highly recommend checking out the rich culture around the area!

    shared bathroom cleanliness

    I had a great time with lively vibes from the bar downstairs and delicious breakfast options. the shared bathroom cleanliness depended on the crowd, which was a bit concerning.

    Spacious and Comfortable Stay with Great Staff

    I had a lovely experience during my short stay. The room was spacious and provided a lot of natural light, coupled with good air conditioning, which was really helpful given the hot weather. The breakfast spread was also delightful, offering a variety of filling options to start the day right. it could use a bit more cleanliness in certain areas.

    lively atmosphere

    It was just an excellent fit for a lightning stop in Dar es Salaam with very good value for money. The lively atmosphere from the bar downstairs added a fun vibe to the stay, even if it made sleeping a bit tricky. Try to bring earplugs if you're sensitive to noise.
