"Spacious, well maintained rooms with excellent amenities. Since this was our first time in Africa, we greatly appreciated the complementary pickup from the airport. We stopped here for a day and a half before embarking on a Safari tour to multiple national parks. There is an in-house restaurant that was hosting a karaoke night the night we checked in - which was a lot of fun. There is also a mall right next door that has other (less expensive) dining options as well as banks where you could convert US dollars to KES."

"It’s a nice property with very good security! The staff is friendly & helpful. There’s a nice restaurant with breakfast lunch and dinner. The unit was very clean and had nice amenities! The shower had the strongest water pressure we’ve ever seen - wow - great shower! But, they do need a curtain between the bedroom and the bathroom. Also, a curtain over the bathroom window. Would be a great place to stay long-term, very spacious and comfortable with huge TV. We would stay there again for sure!"
