Transport was great. Driver took us to restuarant and waited for us. 
The area around lodge is not 
Rooms were mixed - we had 3 but ended up with 2 because the AC did not work in one room and our two sons had to double up.  
The transport back to airport was very efficient. 
Overall good for a night close to airport

A real mixed bag

We stayed here after arriving to the Dar airport quite late one night. We got a taxi at the airport to take us there though the hotel would have organized a driver for the same price (now we know after trying to negotiate with the taxi drivers at the airport). It's a basic place but the staff do their best to make you comfortable (they heated up water for us as there wasn´t any more hot water). They organized a taxi to take us to the port the next morning (go early as there is a lot of traffic!).

Fine for a short stay

I had an early morning flight so opted to stay here, its very close to the airport.
Basic accommodation, but it is clean and budget friendly, works well for short stop over trips. The taxis we took had abit of difficulty locating the place so be sure to save directions before hand.

Basic Accommodation, but close proximity to airport

At first view the lodge makes a good impression. The staff is friendly. The yard looks nice with the bar and the seating area on the porch and inside. There is an air condition in every room. 

For various reasons this first impression did not last. 
The bin in the room was not cleaned/emptied properly (contained two used condoms). The towl, probably due to hand wash, was a bit smelly. Toilet paper was only provided when explicitly asked for.
We used the hostel as a big group for almost two weeks with a break of a couple of days in between. The booking had been confirmed. On our second return, however, 3 rooms had been given to other guests and we had to find another lodge for half of the group. 
Every day the room service came to clean our rooms. After those visits some of us (who hadn’t locked their suitcases) missed some of the following items. Powerbanks, adapters, travel mobile, belts, shirts, rain jacktes, cigarettes, pocketknives, … Items which had been hidden in the lower sections of the suitcases. After confronting the manager, two powerbanks miraculously appeard in the rooms again the next day and two shirts were returned (They had found them underneath the matrass).  
The wifi didn't work.

What first looked like a good choice of hostel, will never be an option for us again.

It is possibly still suitable for a short overnight stay due to it's proximity to the airport and the provided shuttle service.

good at first sight but never again without lockable suitcases

WARNING - DO NOT STAY HERE.
On a first glance the lodge seems to be ok - rooms are clean, there is a gate and it´s close to the Airport.
However Hotel staff is stealing - they opened my suitcase and my backpack and took clothes and other items such as phone, powerbank, pocketknife. The manager was not helpful.
So if you are only staying for one night and you are always with your bags, you should be fine. Apart from that I do not recommend staying in that lodge. After this incident I felt not safe any longer in that place!
