The check in is with a different hotel chain which made it confusing. It should mention Temu hotel!

idéal, central, à proximité immédiate de la mer et des bateaux faisant la navette vers l'île de la prison et des différents points d'intérêt de Stone Town aussi bien au point de vue historique que pour le shopping. Magnifique buffet de petit-déjeuner servi au Tembo
