DONOT STAY HERE, PLEASE!!!!
Do not stay in this terrible NO STAR hotel. Far away from Airport and city center, far from the beach also. Traffic jam always happen. Room is very old and toilet was damaged. No soap, shampoo, water supplied. Tap water is salted and undrinkable. Breakfast always lately and poor services. Very bad hotel with "FOUR STAR". Is hotels.com 's staff blind to allow this hotel 4 star? Just a teribble guest house no more

Ei hirveän korkeatasoinen paikka, mutta kun vertaa hinta laatusuhdetta niin mielestäni ihan ok. Todella halpa.

Overall Good
The staff at the M Hotel was helpful and kind. Noise was a factor as it in on a busy road and there is no sound-proofing. A beach shuttle was advertised but there was no beach shuttle readily available during my stay. After some consternation, the manager did very kindly arrange for a tuk-tuk to take me. She was trying to remove the promise of the shuttle from the online posting. All the staff I met were helpful and friendly.

Do not stay at Hotel Mbezi. It is shocking. The rooms were smelly and there was no water in the morning. The hotel did not even know we were arriving as they don't check their bookings.

The place needs alot of TLC. It could be a nice place if the owners would put some money back into their business!!! Bad showers!! And stop all that loud music!! Who wants to pay money for that?? You have to care about your customers!!! The reviews there are not honest!! Staff needs to care also!!

Thumbs Up
We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The Manager was very nice and attended to any situation we had. The staff was very nice too and friendly, food was delicious. The only complaint I have is that the shower needs a little updating. The rooms are cleaned every day and bottled water supplied, laundry is available for a fee. Overall really enjoyed our stay, despite the power going off, but hey its Africa. Definitely recommend this hotel.

Stay was fine. Good size room. Food from restaurant in the evening was really nice! Receptionist wearing headscarf was so warm and welcoming. She asked staff to make us breakfast in the morning as leaving very early before breakfast time which was very much appreciated! Thank you. Water was fairly coldish despite turning on hot. Air con wasn’t strong but you can turn on fan to highest level.
