Protea Hotel by Marriott Dar es Salaam Oyster Bay

The location is great and the staff are exceptional, so very friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant is excellent and the pool area is nice to hang out, have a drink and a dip in the pool! I would recommend this hotel. This is my second time here.

Old hard towels that used to be white . Lizards enter rooms and reception is rude when you ask for help . Bedding is old and worn out . Rooms just smell funny and are out dated . The pool area is the only nice part of that hotel . The rest needs to be refurbished.

The hotel is dated. The beds are uncomfortable. The rooms are tired and the entire property should be re-examined as a Marriot property. All of the service provided at the hotel was acceptable except for the duty manager and Indian man who is rude, manipulative and extremely incompetent perhaps the worst I’ve ever encountered. I have ambassador elite status with Marriot meaning I spend over 100 nights a year in properties around the world. This was the worst experience I’ve ever had as a Marriot guest stay away from this hotel.
