Once I had to be moved in the middle of the night due to mosquitoes, (the hotel DOES NOT supply mosquito nets) then I had to endure cold showers for at least 4 nights because the hot water system was NOT working.

Gave staff a lower rating because one of them spoiled it for the rest , instead of spraying the room against mosquitoes as requested he went in ransacked bags and personal belongings looking for something to take i believe, at the end he left without doing what took him there in the first place . Please lock everything when you go to this place some characters that work there have no integrity

Amazing staff, and a great value for the quality of the property, staff, and pool. My only complaint is that the bed was a bit too firm; but I’ve found this very often in traveling. AC seemed to struggle a bit, never got cool enough in the room.

The hotel was pretty awesome however the booking process wasn't the advertised price was Ksh 2,870.00 per person per room but when we made the booking I was charged 62 Euros which translates to about Ksh 8,200.00 which wasn't what I was expecting.

I was taken to the first room and the A/C system was not working. Got moved to another room which was working perfectly. Terrible WiFi; couldn’t get anything done while I was there. The bathroom needs some work. The place needs some renovating because becoming a part of the PrideInn chain it is behind. The staff was amazing and were attentive to everything. They made the stay better.

Nice hotel, good for price

Pride inn was a nice place to stay for a few days. The pool was nice, the beach is not far and you can always take a tuk tuk around. Our ac was not working so they happily changed us to another room as there was one available. Good for price range
