The toilets and the bathroom were in poor condition and the bed linens were washed in a lye-based detergent and I developed a mild rash from sleeping in them.

The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. I liked the location: Very close to excellent street food and the airport.

The Breakfast was not really good and the process was taking much time (we went there at 6:30 and it took long). Also the rooms where not so modern and the personal was not very friendly.

The room had an AC which is quite nice for the price. Also Breakfast was offered.

The location is difficult to get to and there is nothing really redeeming about the property. Meals were. Equally basic but OK.

This is a very basic hotel with few redeeming features. It's reasonable value for money and close to the SGR Terminus but still requires a boda boda ride to and fro. Staff were competent and helpful.

To be honest I think it should be a lot cheaper for what you get!

The hotel is very basic, but exactly what you need to serve the purpose of just stopping over in Mombasa. Comfy bed, spacious room and they have a restaurant (not the best for vegetarians but was fine). Very friendly and accommodating staff!

Just as we arrived at the Coastgate, the heavens opened and it poured with rain! Which was refreshing but I think lots of windows were opened to let the fresh air in, as it had been really muggy. I think as a result, there were a good few crawlie bugs, including a gorgeous foot long millipede that checked in with us too! It wasn't a major problem, just worthy of note that it's a very rural setting. To be honest, if you're really freaked out about bugs, consider staying in another country!

Our little team stayed here for one night only, in preparation to catch the SGR the next morning to go to Nairobi. This was an absolute gem of a place, a little tricky to find if I'm honest once we were in the hubub of the town, but using Google Maps we got there without a fuss. We were greeted and assisted at the entrance to the hotel and shown to our rooms. For a budget hotel, I have to say, this really was a great stay. The beds were very comfortable, the mossie net over the bed was quite attractive and really functional, and the shower and loo was lovely and clean. There was good aircon too for those that needed it and a fan. There was even a telly but it only had about 3 channels of fuzzy rubbish and I didn't go to Kenya to watch the box, so I wasn't fussed. The food was delicious and copious but it did take a little more time to organise. Because of COVID, lockdowns and the financial crisis, lots of Kenyan hotels haven't managed to get back on their feet properly. As a result, the kitchen at Coastgate doesn't always carry a broad selection of ingredients for that day. You just need to let them know what you fancy and they'll source everything fresh from the market which is literally outside your door, then present you with a delicious plate of supper at the time you want it served. The food options were abundant by the way - there was lots of delicious Kenyan and European choices. Nobody left the table with a hole in their tummies, I can tell you that, in fact, my only grumble about this amazing little place would be that they served TOO much food and we were concerned about waste! We took back doggie bags so all was good but I guess the reason they do it is because they want to ensure people leave good reviews and that more people start using the hotel again. If you need to get the SGR from Mombasa to anywhere, make this your pitstop! It's smashing and the people are incredibly gracious and helpful and the price is perfect!

Google map took me on a road over a nearby hill, which was not a good road....double-check directions.

Good price, convenient location, clean, guarded parking. Will stay again.

The road google took us through from the SGR to the hotel was hectic. Narrow, potholed and through a dodgey area.

Clean place, good breakfast and attentive staff.

Breakfast is scheduled to be served starting at 6 a.m. However, in the morning of my departure we didn't get our breakfast until 6:45 and by then we needed to rush out to go to the airport. The place is quite noisy also, because windows are jalousies which don't seal shut and keep noise out or in. This is a budget hotel and served our purpose and I don't know whether you can find a better hotel in MIritini, which is not a tourist destination at all.

The location is off the main highway hidden down a lane in back of the NTSA office. A bit hard to find but we managed. The staff are friendly and courteous. Dinner was ordered from the restaurant downstairs hours ahead of time and was good. The AC in our deluxe room worked very well and we had no complaints there. There is no room fridge or other niceties like shampoo in the bathroom. A very basic accommodation but it was clean and comfortable enough and suited our purpose for a short few days visit.

It's a dry hotel and no vegetarian options for dinner. Its also SUPER loud, both outside the hotel and in the halls. It sounded like people were inside my room. Definitely bring ear plugs.

Beds were comfortable and price was good for a budget hotel kind of close to the airport. No charge for late check-out up until 12pm... just let them know.

I did not like almost everything. The photos on the booking.com website for this accommodation does not reflect what the reality is. The rooms are old and badly or hardly maintained. The pillowcases are old and torn, the sheets are also old, and stained. Blood traces on the mosquito net and it was a struggle to use the mosquito net, since the rails are not working. The towels were too old to be presented to any guest. The toilet was not flushing! Come breakfast time, we were harrased by flies. They were all over us and all over our food that we could not enjoy anything. Tip/advice to the management: Maintainance! Mentainance! Guys. Very important. Make your guests happy by upgrading your accommodation. Alooot has to happen.

The only thing I liked was the receptionist. He was friendly and did his job well.
