I booked on the platform for room and breakfast to get to the hotel to be told, breakfast was not part of my booking. That’s was not pleasing. And had to spend more than I budgeted for. I am highly disappointed.

My go-to hotel whenever I'm in Nairobi. I just love it - the location, price, condition of the facility, kindness and professionalism of the staff are unmatched. I only had one problem during this stay - internet problems that drove me to the hotel next door to use THEIR WiFi. Problem was resolved by the next day.
