Trois jours à Arusha
Un hôtel pour petits budgets à Arusha tout à fait correct. Petit déjeuner gratuit et copieux. Personnel souriant, qui nous a trouvé un chauffeur sympa et dévoué pour les trois jours de notre séjour. Chambre simple mais propre,douche avec eau chaude. En retrait de la highway Arusha Moshi, donc pas de bruit. A 4 kms du centre ville. On nous a préparé un repas le soir de notre arrivée à 22h avec gentillesse. Pas un grand standing, attention, mais on le conseille à tous ceux qui veulent simple, pas cher, et permet de rencontrer des africains. Peu de Blancs dans cet hôtel, et tout le monde a été très sympa avec nous.
