Clean, basic and comfortable accommodation.

Clean, modern and comfortable but is basic accommodation with a number of failings: poor shower, rooms are lit up by corridor lighting at night so impedes sleep, there are no room facilities (cups, coffee, etc) and internal floors can be very slippy under foot after rainfall (but expect rains!). Staff are friendly and polite which helps on any stay.

Good value for money. Friendly staff

The hotel property is clean but a bit old, it could do with renovations. Staff are very friendly and willing to help. Restaurant food options are ok, and breakfast was good but with limited options. The swimming pool is clean. The hotel is very good value for money.

I would recommend this place for someone looking for a basic place to sleep in with all amenities but nothing fancy to it.However, for the price you get all the basic things you would need.The hotel is convenient for someone looking to explore the area.The staff were very helpful during our stay- easy check inn.

Hotel manque un peu d'amour ! Quelques petites choses brisées ici et là... J'avais la chambre " Deluxe vue sur la mer" Oubliez cela !! La mer loin et accessible par petit chemin tres sale et dangereux, tres pollué partout sur les bords de chemins et routes. Nairobi plus propre. Coté Mombassa, plus sale partout et tres musulmans... tres strict partout ... tout le contraire de Nairobi. Voilà

Ok men kunde varit bättre.

Väldigt lyhörd omgivning dörrar smällde igen flera gånger om dagen, sopor/skräp utanför balkong. Städning va ok i rummen, cigarett rökta rum samt varken toa eller dusch fungerade som det skulle, personalen va överlag väldigt trevliga, poolen va ok, men medlet i bassängen gjorde att man fick utslag samt dotter skar sig två gånger då kakel i poolen va trasigt.
