So convenient to and from the airport. Not fancy but more than adequate for travelers looking for a good value and pleasant experience. I stayed extra days due to business in Dar before departure to Mbeya. Friendly and helpful staff. Shopping for essentials nearby as well as English language church on Sunday. I travel to TZ every year and I will stay at this Hotel from now on. Asante sana Transit Motel Suites!
