Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We booked 2 rooms for 3 nights. They advertise AC but both rooms that we were originally given did not work. In addition my kids rooms were cleaned very poorly. We asked 4 times for someone to clean the shower and fix the fact it wouldn’t drain. They switched us in to a room that had AC the first night. For my kids they showed them 6 rooms that AC don’t work. We were trying to get an appropriate room until 11 PM. We gave up and they gave us fans for the first night as we were getting up at 5 am to see the park. The second night after me telling them I was going to leave the hotel they finally found them a room with functioning AC. As compensation they allowed us to play the pool table, very poor customer service to make things right. But even at that they tried to charge us for the pool. Will not come back. We were going to stay there upon our return to Narobi but that isn’t happening.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff of the hotel were nice. I asked for a room facing outside rather than a wall and they provided that. Unfortunately, the bed was very uncomfortable. It was extremely soft with no back support and bed framing was old and peeling. Plus one pillowcase was torn. The toilet flush button kept coming loose and needed multiple presses to stop the water. Overall, the room did what it needed to do, but comfort and maintenance were not great.

The rooms were cleaned along with complimentary water which is always a nice touch. The check-in staff were friendly as was the concierge. Security was present outside at all times and the hotel has a great ambience about it. The breakfast was ok and I do not believe the aircon was working properly.
