I do NOT recommend that hotel. Old style boxxy hotel from the 1980'. Super small bathroom and shower with a plastic curtain. For the toilet, you litterally stand in the shower : unacceptable. Ok it is clean and there is a small unattractive pool. It is worth no more than 50 €, a sort of ok 2 stars lodge. No Zanzibar dream at all. Breafast is ok. Hotel is situated in second line from the beautiful beach. There are much nicer hotels ON the beach. Without a car, you are trapped in an ugly back street.

Wonderful place to relax and feel at home, 1 minute from the beach, very clean and new, friendly and welcoming staff, equipped with a kitchenette and fridge. The pool is a perfect place to hang out when the tide is low. The location is also perfect, since there are many bars and restaurants within walking distance. A booklet with information about tours you can book is available, Annalisa also gave us some tips about parties in Paje which was helpful.
