I stayed for one week. Overall it wasn't too bad, but I am not a difficult person to please. More picky customers would probably not be too happy with the service. The Positives: - The Room was a decent size, had great water pressure and a very effective hot water heater. - Bed was quite comfortable and had extra pillows - area is quiet and peaceful setting - the food was quite delish - only a short boda or tuktuk ride into town Negatives: - the power goes out often - no AC in rooms (does have fan though) - no screens on windows...so when the power goes out and you have no fan, you can't even open the windows at night cause you'll get eaten alive by mosquitoes...so you just sit in a hot ass room with no air movement. - staff were friendly but seemed very unmotivated. Had to wave someone down every single time I needed a refill of my drink, or anything like that. - in 7 days, my room was not cleaned once. I am sure they would have if I asked, but normally this is something that is automatically done.

Met onze 3 kinderen (20-ers) was ik daar vlak voor en vlak na onze beklimming van de Kilimanjaro. We hadden daar een zeer aangenaam verblijf. Een mooie kennismaking met het "echte Afrika". Rustige omgeving, fijne mensen, goede service. Speciaal dank aan Denis, Josph en Rosey voor de goed zorgen. Op loopafstand van het centrum van Moshi waar we koffie dronken en lunchten in het Union Cafe, KNCU.

I was using the facilities to present a Wilderness First Responder training course for Kilimanjaro guides. During the 10 days I was presenting the course, I also use their accommodation. I can't fault them. The staff is amazing and always helpful and friendly. They always said yes to every requestI made. The accommodation is comfortable, clean and really enjoyed my stay there.

Bathrooms terrible, shower wets the toilet and rest of the small bathroom, toilet seat was broken, and there's no mirror. They kept on forgetting to turn on the boiler in the evening, so we had cold showers. Paint is coming off the walls. The garden is full of construction stuff. Bad service from personal. Try to sell you a Bajaji ride for double the normal price. Water is sold for 2000 TSH for 1L. Only positive thing was that the cook was willing to make breakfast at 6am. Good to know that you can only pay with cash and most of the time they do not have change if you want to buy a drink.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was also really good and the outside space is well done with a good vibe.. Unfortunately that was the extent of the good review. I'd made this booking almost two months prior and even ensured that I personally followed up with a phone call and e-mail. Only to arrive there on the check-in date and they hadn't reserved any rooms for us. They tried to say that I had cancelled the booking but luckily I had the booking confirmation with me and all e-mail communication. In the end, they gave us the two last remaining rooms which were in *dismal* state! Broken windows, holes in the ceiling and walls, huge cracks in the doors, leaking toilets, etc. We didn't have much of a choice but to stay there as all accommodation in Moshi was fully booked due to the Kilimanjaro marathon and we also had a really early morning as marathon participants. I also suspect that they bumped us (Kenyans) off to accommodate some European tourists. The hygiene levels were also poor. White towels with dirty stains and brown streaks, really old mouldy pillows. How hard is it to bleach white towels and regularly update pillows? It was the **most disappointing stay ever** especially considering how early we had made the booking and that I'd read so many positive reviews on TripAdvisor about it.

I spent a whole month at the Better Inn and had a great time there. My room was small but nice, the bed was comfortable, the food was delicious, fresh and plentiful. The room was cleaned every 2-3 days, including making the bed and spraying mosquito repellent. If I had wanted to, my clothes and shoes would have been washed too. The fan was a blessing in the evening for fresh air before going to sleep, and I didn't think it was too loud. In the event of a power outage, the generator was switched on, so you didn't have to go without light or WiFi. WiFi reception was good in both areas (sleeping, outside area), and there are also sockets in all areas, so you could also work on site. Excursions (e.g. coffee and waterfall, safari or Maasai village) can be booked directly through the hotel. Even if I wanted to drive somewhere in the Bajaji, the staff organized one for me. The district is a bit far from the center, but you can get there on foot in 20 - 30 minutes, otherwise there are Bajaji or Bodaboda (motorcycles) as taxis everywhere. In the area there are several small and large supermarkets as well as the district market and many small and large grill kitchens, so you don't always have to eat in the hotel. If you do: The food in the hotel was very tasty and very generous 😋 For me, the nearby but almost abandoned airfield was also a great place to go, here you have a great, unobstructed view of Kilimanjaro in the morning and evening hours, and there are also lots of birds here. I really enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset from the roof terrace. But the biggest plus point goes to the employees. Be it the boss or manager, the chef or service or housekeeping: everyone looked after me very well, was very nice and friendly and dealt with problems or requests immediately. I would love to come back ☀️

The place is quite with good atmosphere. The staff was really nice and responsible. It was a bit far from city center, but you can find Piki piki at the closest road. The place can arrange any trip you want to do- day trip, kilimanjaro and maro mountain
