Wonderful hotel with excellent service. We had the best breakfast buffet out of all the places we stayed for three weeks in Kenya. Safe neighborhood, across the street from an upscale shopping center, close to all sites of Nairobi.

I loved how the apartment was accessible to everything. Malls, supermarket, my work and public transportation. It has a very convenient location. The team was also friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. They made my entire stay smooth and stress-free. I will definitely be using their services again in the future.

The staff was incredibly welcoming and a complete joy to interact with. They were genuinely friendly and always a step ahead in checking on our needs.

Teresa was so helpful and friendly. Her house is super convenient for the airport and the SGR terminus. Teresa provided transport and a delicious evening meal at a very good price. Really good hot shower and comfy beds. We wish Teresa every success with her new venture and thoroughly recommend. We will be back any time we need a place to stay in Nairobi.

    I liked the pool, the breakfast on the terrace and the relaxing environment. The place is very clean. Standard room are very nice, but budget room is very small and the showers is bad. Some members of the staff are extremely nice, like Susan, others make trubles... Overall in a good place to stay, we spent 2 weeks and the location was good for us because we needed to travel to magadi everyday.
