The hotel is situated in the very centre of Stone Town, you wouldn‘t wish for a better location. It is not directly on the beach but both walking to the beach and to numerous restaurants and cafes is just matter of couple of minutes. The hotel itself is in oriental style that gives it some special charm. The restaurant is on the roof which is not so high but the views make you feel like in the 18th century, which we found interesting. The staff is very friendly but they do not always address to the mentioned problems. One can feel a bit of lack of professionalism in the sphere but because they are all nice young people, it is not a big problem, one can always improve themselves:) The breakfast was good, not very different from the breakfast in other hotels on the island. As usual you get fruit and then can choose from salty and sweet options of breakfast. The room was very small but in fact there was enough space for our stuff and clothes, and you have everything you usually need in hotels, the bed was big and good but it takes most of the space in the room, so do not expect moving around much in the room because there is not much room:))
The bathroom was not small and I would call it comfortable what refers to the facilities, but we could not get hot water even though we turned the switch on and waited for a really long time, so we had to shower with cold water every day and though we told the staff about it, it was not fixed (either not possible or forgotten). The shower heads (both the big and the small ones) were very old and even rusty, the small hand shower was not functioning at all, so we had to use the big one and make our hair wet even when we did not want it. The shower switch remained in my hand the very first time I tried to turn it on, and I barely touched it.
Set in Zanzibar City, 500 metres from Stone Town Beach, Retro features views of the city. Featuring a garden, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom.

It is the gateway to Zanzibar when you had an early morning, late night or even a long flight just to relax. The establishments are helpful and so are the locals. You can take a cheaper Tuktuk or more expensive private taxi, spend about 20 minutes to Stone Town where you will be able to do many tours at or from. If you have never been on a Tuktuk it could be an opportunity to have a time of your life bumping and breaking as it pass thorough traffic. You also can choose to rent a car if you willing to drive there. Just remember that most roads are small and speed limit is lower than other countries. While you there, there are motorcycles, pedestrians, tuktuks and other cars that buzz everywhere, if you choose to rent a car. The wind from the open top part of the doors in refreshing. Note that the locals may not speak English as good as you, so speak slower and clearly. They are very helpful. There are supermarkets, restaurants, accommodations in different styles in Kiembi Samaki.
You can book tours directly from there to other areas. Though I would advise to go further inwards the country once you are done with sightseeing. Then book a night just before your flight so that you are closer to the airport.
I used a supermarket on the main road (Nyerere) to buy supplies. It is next to a Last Minute Safari offices. Just next to it there is a Hotel with restaurant. I used a mixture of Tuktuk and private taxi to commute. Make sure you have Tanzanian Shilling to be able to use around. Take the name of establishment, street and landmarks should you use a tuktuk so that you can explain when you come back.
lastly, relax because Zanzibar is a very safe place. ofcourse caution is needed, but not like in many countries.
