The host, innocent, helps everyone with everything! He made sure I felt safe and also provided laundry service and a lift to the airport. Kindest & most helpful staff I’ve met on my travels! There is always someone there to help you. Very comfy beds & there’s hot water, teas, coffees & cold drinks to buy. If I ever return to Arusha this is where I’d stay again:)

This place is yet to be discovered and get the recognition it deserves. The location is not very great, but you forget that fact soon as you enter the compound because it is quite beautiful, with amazing customer service. The design of the property is simple, modern and elegant with a mini-pool to boot. I loved the mezzanine design (which reminds me of Heritage Collection Skylight in Singapore :) and the well thought out interior, including a mini-bar fashioned dining area, well furnished kitchen, a huge smart tv infront of a comfortable couch. The staff were also super helpful and went out of their way to make you comfortable.

It was a very nice stay. The house is quite central and a very homy get away in the middle of town. Gerald is a very friendly and uncomplicated host with a great taste of indoor design! The breakfast was great, lots of fruit, fresh juice and eggs. Loved it!

We definitely recommend OYA Guest House and can’t wait to come back on our next mission! The rooms were impeccably clean, the bed was the most comfortable of our entire journey, and the homemade food prepared by Jacky was exceptional. Most importantly, Jacky herself is the sweetest and most thoughtful host we encountered!

    I really loved my stay here - Innocent is a great host, always going an extra mile to help or accommodate his guests. As it was my first time in Tanzania, he made it much easier for me to get used to it, helped arrange transportation, order food from delicious local restaurant etc. Also breakfast served was delicious!
