Nice environment, nice staff courteous and professional and it’s very safe .
But getting hot water in the shower is tricky, No T.V remotes in the rooms , no elevators.
Towels are old and need to be replaced.

Dear Amina,
Thanks for your comments. We have remotes but they are stored at the reception and can thus ask for one.The shower is hot all you need is to turn on the switch for hot water to be available. We hope you shall visit us in future and we shall strive to provide the best experience.

We apologize for the reception staff not asking our porter to assist with the luggage as is the norm with a guest with so many bags we shall look into this and hope to see you in the near future for a more memorable experience
Horrible experience; Poor location and room condit
Do not trust the reception when they say something is included in the price, as they would later ask you to pay for it with a security guard standing right next to you.
Situated on a noisy street with major bus stops and courier companies. Closing the windows at night does not help.
Very hot in the room as there were no fans
Nearly no hot water for shower.
No water in the morning and the staff just said OK when being told about it.
The furniture is worn and dirty.
Lights were flickering from time to time with a bible lying awkwardly in the middle of the table.

Dear Oscar,
We appreciate the candid comments and take it seriously. Our most sincere apologies for the negative experience. As for price inclusion, we highly rcommend that guests contact us for any clarifications needed. Our hotel is also in the city's central business district, thus the busy street. Am also glad to inform you that the lights and water issue has since been rectified. We welcome you again to our hotel, and do hope that you will enjoy our services.
Center of downtown Close to shops, A bit hectic, yet nice to see local area. Nice room and a great buffet local food breakfast. Pick up was provided from airport for a small fee and was trust worthy.

Too much noise at the hotel i.e., maintenance in the morning, no sound proof for outside noises, busy location with cars hooting, sounds, people and very minimal breakfast

Number of things went wrong like no water in the shower etc
Staff were helpful & worked hard to provide an alternative but to no avail. Talked of fault pump that could not be fixed in early hours of the morning.
Shower drainage terrible. Drains very slowly. Something must be done!!
Its economical for those looking to save but i can't recommend it to my fellow travelers and neither will i return again.

the price is right
this is a decent inexpensive hotel a bit outside the main visitor area. Staff was very nice. Breakfast was fine. My room had two double beds and there wasn't much room for anything else. The main problem was the street is very busy and noisy. Next time I will ask for a non street side room.

Hi Maureen,
sorry for the late response. I apologize for what you went through especially for the rude reception and for the lack of WiFi that was fixed and also the TV channels.
Hope that you accepted my deepest and sincere apologies.

Nicht für schwache Nerven die Gegend ist das reinste getto man wird nur belästigt. Das zimmer ist alt das badezimmer eine Katastrophe ab 5 uhr war kein schlaf mehr möglich. Es wird gehupt und gehämmert.
Personnel super, service taxi impeccable, chambre propre et calme malgré le quartier agité dans lequel se trouve l'hôtel. C'était ma 11e fois à Nairobi et une des rares fois où j'ai pu dormir d'une traite. L'hôtel-resto Kipépéo est juste à côté pour une nourriture plus occidentale et de qualité.

Hotel económico, con internet y servicios básicos. Muy bajo conocimiento del ingles, sobre todo en el restaurante, difícil comunicarse. Las chicas de recepción siempre muy amables.
