Positive: One of the very few places with Hostel in their name. Ok place to stay for a pit stop in Stone Town. Was pretty quiet when I was there.. off season. The host Farees was VERY accommodating when I had to change my dates (I was the only one in the hostel so probably that helped :) ).
Summary: Decent place in Stone Town
