The hotel was exactly what I needed for 4 nights in Niarobi. Hot shower. Clean bed. Nice restaurant. The staff were helpful and the owners brother, David, was good company and also very helpful. I would stay here again. There is also 24 hour on site security so safety is no concern.

This is the worse place I have ever stayed in Nairobi. Not tv no Wi-Fi water was too hot or too cold. I can’t believe I have paid 5000 place like this. Places like this are normally 1500 shillings. This really will put me off using Expedia again. Not happy at all.

Not sure about the 3.5 star rating...

one of the worst experiences I have had for a long time, Not really sure how the Hotel gets a 3.5 star rating, it doesn't deserve it... I can understand some of the more happier reviews if you were to go there for a night at the bar / nightclub next door but otherwise, never again... Even at the end of the night, sitting in the courtyard enjoying a beer, we got ushered back to the room thanks to the police trying to fleece us even though it was only 21:30, half an hour before curfew.... That is an experience I never want to repeat
