Liked: Full breakfast (as in huge) included, rooms clean, helpful staff. We asked for a room higher up and away from the road (upon advice of other reviewers) and slept without distraction.

Disliked: You wouldnt walk anywhere from here - we were warned about theft so had to catch taxis for 500KES into the city. Hot water was ok but not brilliant. Pillows are atrocious, but thats par for the course in Kenya.

Liked: The people who work in this B&B make it as they are so friendly and will go out of their way to be helpful, make sure you do actually converse with them as it is worthwhile! The safari tour was quite expensive but as only arrived the evening before wasnt able to check around to see what was available and it meant that actually got to see some of the attractions like the elephant sanctuary and the giraffe centre.

Disliked: Wished the area was nicer around the hotel as would have liked to have be able to walk around but dont let this put you off.

Liked: I liked the cleanliness of the room and nice furnisning and equipment of the Ensuite we had even if the room was quite small. The hotel has very nice roof terrase from which you can see the Nairobi.

Disliked: It was a second time we spent a night in this hotel. For the first time we had a very nice quiet room. But for the second time we got the room with view on main street in the first floor. It was absolutely terrible experience. Even on Saturday night the street was very noisy. We could not sleep at all. I would recommend to all people to ask for the room which has windows to the yard side or is in the higher floor at least.

Liked: We had a very nice Ensuite in the floor above the reception in direction to the yard. It was quiet. Even if the room was quite small it was nice furnished and clean with all needs for 1 night stay. The view from roof terrase was very nice. Personal was very friendly.

Disliked: The location of the hotel is on Ngara Road which is noisy and dusty. I was not brave enough to walk on the street.

Liked: Nice breakfast made to order - you put the order in the night before so you get exactly what you want.

Disliked: Be aware this is not in the centre of Nairobi. This is not a problem, as its only a 10min walk into town - or a 400 KSh taxi if you don't like walking past the slums (not advisable after dark)
