Do not even consider
My experience at Mayfair hotel was terrible. What is potrayed online is not what you experience .On my arrival, the lady receptionist was very rude and unfriendly .I got assigned a another room since the room i had reserved was given away to another guest. Dirty rooms and unfriendly staff. You have been warned.

8/10 Very Good

I was a little nervous to stay here because of mixed reviews online, but I had a good experience. You are paying more for the location, size of the rooms and for having a fridge and some rooms have a stove. Rooms with kitchen are not fully stocked. if you plan to cook alot it will be good to carry a few things with you. I stayed here for 7 days. The room I stayed in the first day had several things not working(hot water heater, plug for fridge) but the room i stayed in for 6 days did not have any issues. I recommend if possible to check out the room you will stay in before booking expecially if you are picky or staying for more than one day. I believe the mixed reviews online are because some rooms are in better condition than others. Most people tend to give either a very high rating or very low. Also the description of some of the rooms online do not completely match what you get. You need to keep in mind this is not listed as a high star motel. For a single person or couple there are fancier places you can stay in this price range but they are often smaller rooms and might not have a fridge and most will not have kitchen area. This motel has options that have more than one bed which are harder to find that do not feel like a dorm room. You also have a gym you can go to as part of your stay. Breakfast could be better for cost of room. There are not many options for someone not wanting to eat alot of carbs. They do not have good hot options.You can askthem to cook you eggs

Comfortable spot in Mikocheni with local amenities
In a central spot in Mikocheni in between Oyster Bay and Mwenge, 2 minutes walk from Shoppers Plaza. Rooms are large, our standard double room came with a large fridge, sofa, TV. Bathroom was also large and clean. Bed was comfy. Outside of the rooms the hotel does look a bit dated and worn out. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Free breakfast was enough but average. Have had far better and fresher breakfast from much cheaper hotels in Dar.

Excellent location - close to shoppers plaza etc, fantastic front desk staff, easy access to all transportation 5ypes - Bajaj, boda-bodas, taxis, dala-dalas, Uber etc, breakfast is ok, good WiFi...... Unfortunately, no standard restaurants in-house for lunch and dinners (except bradfast set up) and some of the infrastructure are crying for maintenance. Otherwise, I enjoyed my short stay there.

Mediocre or less
AC did not work in room to which I was first assigned. To their credit they moved me to a larger room, with functioning AC. Nevertheless, I would give this hotel somewhere between 2-3 overall rating. Due to terrible traffic in Dar es Salaam, hard to get from there to wherever I needed to be during the day.
