This hotel has a fantastic location right in the center of Nairobi, making it easy to connect to different areas. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, with a nice large shower and mosquito repellent provided. However, the dining experience didn't quite meet my expectations, and the service could use a bit more attentiveness, especially considering the older security guard. Overall, it offers good value for money but with some minor drawbacks.
