    The breakfast was savoury and rich and consisted of outstanding meals. I was offered a room with panoramic views over the ocean. The location of this hotel was nice and decent. Everything was very good and within 10 minutes' drive of Kisauni airport.

    Booked a room with exceptional views over the ocean. An electric kettle and a fridge were a huge plus. - the location was favorable, only a 3-minute walk from the reception and close to shops. - It was within walking distance from the main stores.

    I had a great stay at Tembo B&B Apartments in Stone Town. The room I stayed in was recently refurbished and everything seemed very new. The air conditioning, hot water, and internet all worked flawlessly. The bed was big and comfortable, with a mosquito net. The location was also perfect, right in the heart of Stone Town. The staff were excellent and helped me out when a taxi driver tried to scam me. I would definitely recommend this place for a comfortable and convenient stay in Stone Town.

    The breakfast at Tembo B&B was wonderful, with a variety of options including a fresh egg station and yummy waffles. The location of the B&B was perfect, just a minute walk from the main hotel and close to everything in Stone Town. The apartment we stayed in was clean, spacious, and nicely furnished with great views of the city. The hotel staff, especially Said, were helpful and made us feel safe throughout our stay. I highly recommend Tembo B&B for a pleasant and convenient stay in Stone Town.
