"Located in the heart of Stone Town, surrounded by shops, staff treat you well. The only thing was not informed upfront, they have a tax of extra $2 per night, and you must pay on arrival."
Good location - in the center of everything in Stone town. They don’t have water coolers for clients - you have to go to the restaurant to refill.
Also: it seems they bought another building. So they accommodated us in like 200 meters from main facility. Surely it’s kind of inconvenient but still ok.
