"PLEASE BE AWARE. This place overbooks clients so when you arrive they say there is NO reservation under your name. Then they send you to another location of much lower quality. People at the new location confirmed that they do this all the time. It is not a mistake but rather a scam. I left that second location and was lucky to find a nice hotel nearby for the same price. I did get a refund but most people will probably stay where they are forced to stay due to lack of options and uncertainty. I...

Breakfast and room service were very good. The shower has excellent strong water pressure and air cons work very well.

"We (me, my husband and three boys from the age 3 to 9) left our all-inclusive resort on the east coast (Uroa) to stay 2 nights in vivid Stone Town. The Habari House was our choice because of its centrsl location with only a short walking distance to everything. We really enjoyed this part of the journey and recommend the Habari House to everyone, who wants to experience Stone Town for more than just a day-trip!

The power and water shut off in the morning and he was over immediately to fix it (we didn't realize it was on a timer and was an easy fix).
