Clear dates 4.95 out of 5 stars from 73 reviews 4.95 (73 reviews) Jennifer December 2020 Lydia is pretty flexible and very accommodating. She is an exceptionally excellent host. I would highly recommend her. Treasa December 2020 Lydia is a wonderful host! She took such great care of me, I felt so at home! She's kind and welcoming, and also a lot of fun! If you're in Naironi I highly recommend her place... its conveniently located/easy to find, and has all the comforts of home. Thanks for a great stay, Lydia :) Show more Matthew September 2020 I generally will never choose a shared apartment when booking an AirBnB. I have actually only chosen one in the last 15 times I have used this site. I don't know why I decided to go against my normal routine, but I am extremely happy I did !! I was checking in late, after 12AM, due to my flights arrival time and Lydia was so incredibly kind and waited up until I got into the place around 1AM. She immediately gave me the run down about locations of everything within the place and let me relax without interruptions. I was so impressed with her prompt responses up to this point and I knew that in person it would only get better. I was definitely correct!!! She is on point with every concern and she is exudes and incredibly upbeat and compassionate personality. Lydia's place is awesome...Lydia is just as awesome! I am staying here every time I come to Kenya, for at least 2-4 nights. I will definitely be able to get rid f my jetlag and get my initial work from home completed before I venture off to the other tasks I may have in Kenya. I never thought i would be accepting of a shared space, because I am always wanting privacy and the ability to come and go as I please. Lydia definitely has won me over and I will happily make her place my number one stop each and every time I am in Kenya. Trip number 18 to Kenya.....that says a lot!! 25+ AirBnbs and this will be my first stop each and every time. Thanks Lydia!! You are an awesome persona nd you better keep in touch!! Show more Park June 2020 Lydia's place was super clean, very convenient, safe and affordable! She was very friendly, pretty funny and it was nice to meet her. She even made me a meal and it was delicious! #staywithlydia Jessie February 2020 Such a great stay! Lydia’s place is great — conveniently located, safe, very clean. The room is cozy but reasonable, and the space has everything you need. Even beyond that, Lydia is just a fantastic person and goes above and beyond as a host. She took me out for dinner twice, and knows all the hot spots in the city. Definitely stay with Lydia - you won’t be disappointed! Show more Alana January 2020 Lydia is an absolute gem. She takes “hosting” seriously and makes her guests feel like longtime friends. I enjoyed my time with her tremendously. Perfect way to kick off my stay in Nairobi! Lydia, thanks for being so kind and welcoming! Show more Catherine September 2019 Lydia is so thoughtful! She really makes herself available to her guests and is fun and enjoyable to be with. The apartment is not big but is always clean and tidy and Lydia is often offering to share something she has cooked, but she is also out and about living her own life. She will probably offer to go out to dinner with you at least once during your stay, and even though the place is very centrally located with Sarit Centre shopping and Westlands night life, she makes a point to make sure you can find everything you need. A very enjoyable stay with an awesome host! Show more Melissa July 2019 Lydia was the perfect host and by the end of my stay, we had become friends. Service was impeccable and she will help you with anything that you may need during your stay. Her place is centrally located and extremely good value for money. Her apartment is located within a safe compound with security and it was also convenient for Uber drivers to find. Check-in and out were easy and I had my own set of keys. Show more Katie July 2019 Lydia’s apartment is cute, stylish and clean. A short walk from Sarit Center and Westgate mall. Lydia was helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay with her again. Klara K October 2018 Lydia is wonderful—the perfect host: she is gives you space of you need it and chats with you when you want company. She is generous, courteous and fun! Her home is so clean, and you can see the little touches she adds to make the place comfortable for you! The bedroom is cute and so, so clean. Best of all, the bed is so darn comfy! ❤️ Show more Show all 73 reviews Show all 73 reviews Hosted by Lydia Joined in March 2018 80 Reviews Identity verified Superhost Hi im lydia yup! the host with the most :-) i made hosting my passion and my awesome reviews got me featu… read more During your stay I like to give my guests privacy and space...but if they want to socialize ,interact, or hang out then count me in :) Lydia is a Superhost Superhosts are experienced, highly rated hosts who are committed to providing great stays for guests.
