    broken shower
    poor service

    Absolutely disapointing! First, they gave away my 'suite', claiming it was free. Free breakfast though? Surely an insult, when the shower barely worked and there was no hot water. I woudlve appreciated some kind of upgrade for the hassle, but it seems like I wasn't special enough for that. What a sad state!

    tasty food
    old hotel

    Variety of tasty Kenyan food available at odd hours is a pleasant surprise.

    The Wi-Fi is hit or miss, and the constant street noise, punctuated by blaring horns, really disrupts the overall experience. The room I got had issues like broken lights and a malfunctioning shower. The price feels a bit inflated compared to other options in the area.

    variety breakfast

    The location is perfect, just a minute from the city center, and the standard double room was modern and comfortable with a nice bathroom. Their breakfast had a variety of choices and the super nice team, even lending me a phone charger.

    Comfortable and spacious room with a private bathroom - everything was great! 🌟 Convenient location - just a short walk to a popular landmark and buses nearby. We ventured out for dinner and stumbled upon a nice restaurant not too far away from here.

    This hotel is a great value for money, with reasonable prices and attention to detail. I particularly loved the central location, right in the heart of the city. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing basic amenities and ensuring a comfortable stay. The rooms, some with balconies, were clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast was delicious.

    Some improvements can be made in terms of noise control at night.

    Recently refurbished rooms with modern amenities. Friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location in downtown with easy access to city center and airport. Buffet breakfast with a variety of choices. Safe parking area with 24-hour security. Free pick-up and drop-off for guests staying at the hotel

    Noisy location due to heavy traffic and busy streets. Room can be a little dark in certain areas.
