Jaws corner is a place where the locals gather to discuss politics and other things or just drink a cup of coffee. This corner is located somewhere in the maze like streets of Stone Town, on Zanzibar. It is a pleasure getting lost in all the tiny alleys while talking to some locals and looking at all the amazing doors and buildings. #zanzibar #tanzania #streetart

Emerson Spice Hotel

Emerson Spice Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better welcome. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, we arrived very early in the morning and were pleasantly surprised when they offered us breakfast and allowed us to check in early. The property itself is stunning: a beautiful historical building that has been thoughtfully and tastefully decorated. Our room was spacious, elegant, and very comfortable. The location is also great, in a pretty and vibrant street and just a few minutes away from the night market and the sights. Highly recommended!"
