"In positives, they let us check in very early which was much appreciated after an overnight flight. Also the breakfast was great - bacon eggs toast and fruit. We had a standard double room which was very small, both the room and the bed. The shower wasn’t great, it pointed into the middle of the bathroom and onto the door. And the biggest problem was that they couldn’t ‘find’ our booking after I had already booked and paid on Expedia. We were there 3 days and I was asked each day how much I...

"The room was cleanly kept, upon my arrival each day. And the staff was always cheery with a smile, very easy to talk to. The room had a minisplit air conditioner that could freeze you out in minutes if you wanted, and their WiFi and smart TVs were modern and fast, didn’t run into power hiccups or latency issues. Their pool was cleanly and they also have nice well behaved cats that you’ll see from time to time just as elsewhere within Nairobi. I really enjoyed being right beside village market...
