I stayed at Mazzola for 4 nights with my 8-year-old daughter. It was a lovely place with a spacious living room & dining room and well-equipped kitchen with basic food supplies in stock. A short 15-minute tuktuk ride to town and you can easily use Bolt to get around. The host, mr. Innocent, was always on standby to help us with literally anything we needed, from arranging tours to national parks at fair prices to recommending places to eat or visit in Arusha town. He has gone beyond and above to make our trip to Arusha as fun and meaningful as possible. His professionalism and genuine care for the guests truely shone through, and thanks to him, our trip to Arusha will remain as one of the most memorable trips in TZ.

Our room, exactly as pictured, was simply but adequately furnished. Refrigerator and hot water kettle were much appreciated. The outdoor spaces were superb. Beautifully landscaped with multiple comfortable places to sit or recline. We spent hours relaxing, reading, admiring the flowers and enjoying the pleasant weather. The hosts and staff could not have been friendlier or nicer. We were warmly welcomed into their hostel and homestay. Our comfort and well-being seemed to be their top priority. After 4 days it felt like home. A special bonus was chatting and trading information with the dedicated young women staying in the hostel. They were volunteering in Sarah and Emmanuel's Giving Hands organization: including a hospital, clinic and orphanage. The caring and friendly atmosphere was such a pleasant way to begin our stay in Africa.

Breakfast was awesome, very considerate of them. The location is a bit far, but still quite close to the city center, considering the quality of the place.

We absolutely loved our stay with Hope in his beautiful apartment. It was a rainy morning, so we enjoyed the coziness of space, washed laundry, had breakfast and lunch that he prepared for us, and then did some exploring of the neighborhood in the afternoon. You have to fall in love in this part of Arusha with tall banana trees everywhere and incredibly friendly locals. Hope took us to the airport the next morning so that we could catch our flight. It was a wonderful experience to be able to stay with him and being treated like a guest and a friend, all in one.

My stay at OYA was phenomenal! The guest house is clean and cozy. Jacky is the GOAT!!! She's definitely the special sauce and the reason staying at OYA is so fun. All of the meals were delicious and the area is safe to enjoy a nice leisurely walk around. When I come back I will stay here again.

The place is perfect if you look for a quiet and relaxing stay in Arusha that you can spend in the very nice garden in the back yard. The hosts are very friendly and supportive with everything you need. Bus station and city center are in 5- to 10-minutes driving distance, a local street kitchen with nice food for little money is within 3 minutes walking distance. All in all highly recommended!
