    Good Value. Bring your Fan or Mosquito Net

    The rooms are not air conditioned and tend to get too warm and stuffy. The windows do slide open but then the mosquitos flock into the room. There is not a ceiling or floor fan to circulate air.

    Very centrally located. Some reviews complained of the noise outside but it was City Market vendors selling vegetables and the Mosque's call to prayer. I travel for pleasure, not for business, so for me these sounds of a city just enhance the tapestry of the experience.

    Great, friendly staff. Nancy at reception is very kind and maintained communication with me which was helpful because I was arriving to Nairobi near midnight.

    The hotel is a little dated but in general is very good. It’s not a luxury hotel so i think for couple or families is not optimal but it still is pretty good. I would say it’s optimal for business stays.

    The staff is unviable and super helpful. We had to do a last minute booking and they were very helpful.

    Generally, a pleasant stay.

    -Some rooms do not have bidets - if it is something you need, ask for rooms with bidets. -If you are coming with kids, check if room space is enough. Cot is not available on premise. -Mosquitoes and cockroaches - rooms need regular spraying. Cockroaches hidden in wooden areas near bed side table.

    Good: Staff are very friendly and do their best to assist you wherever they can, be it with luggage or other facilities you require. Generally a good selection of breakfast - however, daily varieties should improve, more than what variations were offered currently. Other than that, breakfast was good and enough, hotel staff also assisted to offer customizations to special tea and food for infants (blended food from offered selection). Has a lounge bar on premise on top floor - no need to worry about stepping out at night for a drink or two.

    The shower area needs urgent renovation. Maybe you would consider a glass cubicle to separate the shower and the toilet space. I had trauma taking showers coz it leaves the whole washroom wet. That was a turn off. Also, the towels looked a bit old

    Perfect location. Breakfast was okay and staff were friendly

    -The water doesn't heat quickly enough. -Once a while, the drains emit an unpleasant smell but the window in the room can be opened and closed easily to allow fresh air into the room.

    1. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Especially, Mr. Clement, Mr. Onesimus and Ms. Nancy. 2. The rooms are cleaned daily. 3. Toiletries, bath towels, and beddings are changed on a daily basis.

    The only one elevator was a bottleneck. Always long waiting. I was surprised that they change all the sheets every day. In these times of taking care of the environment, you would not expect that.

    Everything was OK. Good bed, good shower, mostly good wifi. Cleaning the room every day. Good location.
