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.
