The AC did not work. The room door lock malfunctioned. The mattress was inferior in terms of comfort; springy box mattress. The breakfast was limited to mostly canned items and processed food items, with a limited variety of fresh fruits and meat.

I really enjoy my stays at Emara Ole sereni. Everyone there is so friendly and the rooms are well kept, and I really enjoyed having a balcony this time. I can mention a few people who helped make my stay great: Peter Erick at security, Samuel, Lucy, Alex from the front desk, Brian, and Eunice from the shops, and there are so many more people at the hotel I cannot name. This is the only hotel that I stay at when I am in Nairobi.

I was not able to use the rooftop bar area either day of my stay because of special events, which I think are quite frequent these days. Very disappointing because the rooftop bar was a big part of my reason for choosing to stay at Emara.
