"I highly recommend staying at this cozy Jamvini guesthouse, located in the serene foothills of Mount Meru. The peaceful surroundings and proximity to nature offer a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of Arusha town, that I reached for 1000TZS from Mianzini Supermarket. The guesthouse offers comfortable accommodations, friendly staff, and stunning views of the mountain, making it an ideal base for both relaxation and adventure. Whether you’re planning to explore Arusha National Park or simply want a quiet spot to unwind, this place is an excellent choice!"

"We liked everything. We really like Mezza who took us under his wings. Right after our arrival he made us coffee and after that we needed to arrange some thing as buying SIM card and change money. So we thought he will only advise us where to go, but he put the effort into hosting and he went with us and spend a lot of time with us so everything could go smoothly. During that he patiently answered all our questions. After all that, he started a fire on his garden and we kept talking and talking and exchanged our traditions and it was the best accomodation ever. The bed was comfortable, the water was hot and accomodation was very clean. We felt very good."

"Veramente favoloso! La posizione è perfetta per raggiungere il nyerere National park. Il proprietario è gentilissimo e molto disponibile, ha organizzato per noi la visita al parco. Anche lo staff è preparato e gentilissimo. Lavorano al campo anche dei Masai che ti accompagnao la sera in camera e ti aiutano con le valige. La struttura affaccia direttamente sul fiume in una posizione sicura e rialzata e da qui si può organizzare un safari in barca della durata di circa due ore in cui si possono vedere coccodrilli, vari tipi di uccelli e ippopotami. La vista dalla camera è dalla zona comune è spettacolare. La camera è pulita e spaziosa e con una vista meravigliosa. Ulteriore nota positiva è il cibo, cucinato internamente sul fuoco e veramente buonissimo. Ogni dettaglio del campo, dagli alloggi alla cucina, è curato e garantisce un'esperienza immersiva. Riassumendo....meraviglioso e fortemente consigliato."

"The value here was phenomenal. Nice hotel right next to the center of Stonetown but off the main tourist path enough that it feels quiet and secluded. Great shower and decent size room."
"Clean and the hosts always available for anything needed."
