It is a perfect apartment stay place. Safe and very near to the airport! Grest value for money. I will definitely recommend to those who needs to sleep in for few hours and shower facilities.

The security man at the gate was very helpful .
The flat is okay .located close to the airport and Sgr .
If you would like to enjoy privacy its better to book entire flat ,otherwise be ready to stay with different people .
The place is safe though located quite interior which might not be safe if youre coming late at night .Better use a taxi for your safety .
For short stay is recommended .
There is no mosquito nets in the rooms.
The host communication skills is close to zero .She is rude (we slept the whole night without electricity .because she didnt top up electrictity tokens .when i called her to enquire what happened her responses were not kind at all.)
If your friends visit in the flat she charges whooping amount of money .claiming that your friends used toilets and water in the flat.
She sends people in the flat without any prior notice to those living in the house .you just wake up and meet people in the living room.

It is not a hotel but an apartment. I did not like it.
The facilities very poor compared to price. Away from airport, no hotel nearby, water problem, no stuff to assist, what else you need to dissatisfy yourself.

First of all there was no water to shower or drink. On the page it says it's a one bedroom but it's really a two bedroom. The other individual I was Sharing the place didn't even have a key. He kept on ringing the doorbell....he was constantly making very loud phone calls . I hated my entire stay there....had to even leave early because I needed to clean up. I don't recommend this place to anyone!

I felt safe throughout my stay as the place is located in a big apartment building with private access with security. The place is clean, quiet and spacious.
It was bit difficult to check in as the host does not stay at the place and have to deal with the security guard in the apartment. The Bathrooms does not have hot water facilities.
8.0
Nice functional apartment with private bathroom. The living room and kitchen are common areas. There are two more guest rooms in the apartment. We chose it because of its proximity to the Nairobi train station. In the immediate vicinity there are small stores and restaurants. A little further away also a large mall. For one night it was perfect. We didn't meet the host personally but she was friendly and helped us when we had questions/wishes.
The apartment is located on the 4th floor without elevator. You have to walk a bit to find Bodas but this is within reason. We would have liked the pillows to be a little bigger. But these are really only small things.

Very clean room and the interiors are well maintained. Big bedroom, hot shower works well. Internet is good.
The security guard is really friendly and helpful. I had an early morning checkout and he was waiting for me to open the gate for me. Thank you!
Not really.
Just to point out that for this listing you have private bedroom and bathroom with shared living room and kitchen with other guests in the same house.

The place is located in an apartment complex, so the place is quite safe, single bedroom was really confortable, and all the facilities were clean. Despite I never saw the host I was able to communicate with her for any inquiries I had
Maybe for security reasons which is reasonable, but the night guard was really rude, even though the host was aware of my arrival time. Despite that I was able to get in and have a pleasant stay before my safari. Thank you so much!!

Apartment is relatively new.
WiFi works well
Kitchen is fully equipped although not very clean.
Difficult to locate this place as no signboard to show the way.
Walked staircase up to 4th floor with heavy luggage.
Kitchen very hot around 4 -6pm with no curtain to block the sunlight.
Only met host during check in to collect payment.
One of the toilet door cannot be locked.
Not given main door key. Need other guests help to open the door when come back from outside.

I liked the bedroom it was comfortable
the shower in the main bedroom did not work as well as the hot water, also very important was the window which has a broken lock same as the balcony. for security purposes it would be best to look that up .

very spacey and comfortable apartment. great for a night or few. Great and friendly host. Close to basic shop. Very safe place for parking. Very close to the airport which makes it convenient. I will repeat this stay
Only the access was difficult, especially to find the road from the highway

The location was convenient and very safe. The host was very polite and available to handle all the rising matters at all times. Generally, the apartment/room was beautiful, clean, and tranquil and the services were just perfect! Thank you, Betty I will surely visit again.
I suggest that you can add some fruits for breakfast, please.
