Good deal in Historic Stone Town

Mrusi house was in a good location, on a quiet street. It was conveniently located close to everything. The staff was helpful with every question, even walking me to some places I couldn't find. We enjoyed breakfast daily and would return again.

Все было великолепно. Отличное местечко в самом центре Стоун Таун, для не капризных людей. Особая благодарность ребятам на рецепшене! Все запросы были удовлетворены. Утюг, чай в номер, дополн. покрывало - все предоставили. Отдельная благодарность Сулейману! Помог при выезде с такси. Хорошее место!
