Shangani Hotel, Stonetown
Wednesday, September 7, 2005
The Shangani Hotel was located on Kenyatta Road in the heart of Stonetown. It's old-style budget hotel on a very narrow street which nevertheless seems to be a major throughfare.
We gathered in the lobby, gratefully drinking fruit juice while we waited for our room keys and passports.
Meanwhile a local guide called Hamid gave us an overview of Stonetown and told us about a spice tour we can book tomorrow if we're interested. We are.
But first things were first: up to our room for a blessedly hot shower!
Our room was #209, up forty old wooden steps. The wooden shutters refuse to open so it was little dim, but it had air-conditioning, beds, hot water, and toilet paper so I'm utterly content.
