Toilet did not flush. No toiletries/towel provided. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Majlis Mar 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bra hotel möta Jomo Kenyatta AirPort Ett mycket trevligt litet hotel med trevlig ägare och personal. Rent och bra frukost. Bekväma sängar och bra avstånd till flygplats. ##### Majlis Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff is very pleasant and eager to please. Clean and close to the airport, but down a lumpy dirt road. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Martin Dec 24, 2018 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Man får vad man betalar för. Billigt och mycket enkelt hotell. Detta var ett hotell vi bara stannade på en natt innnan vi skulle ut på safari, hade inte våran flight varit försenad och vi kommit fram så sent, hade vi bytt hotell. Hotellet låg lite avsides. Vi beställde frukost till klockan 6:30 eftersom vi skulle bli upphämtade för safari klockan 7\. Frukosten fick vi, men först klockan 10 i 7, men frukosten var helt ok. Personalen var trevlig och gulliga, dock fick vi be om att bli visade till rummen. Hotellet skulle behöva fräschas upp en hel del. Jag skulle inte välja detta hotellet igen. ##### Martin Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Huug Nov 3, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Basic accomodation to cover a transit night The Transit Hotel offered two clean beds. Having said so: it was very basic. The shared bathroom waa clean but run down: shower head spread electric sparks, the toilet had no seat. Towels were handed after we asked. The free drinking water (as was mentioned in the confirmation) was billed for. Since we only had to cover literally one transit night, we were happy with a bed to crash on. It would not have served for a longer stay. The staff was friendly. ##### Huug Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Jacob Oct 17, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great transit hotel Short stay in Nairobi for a 22 hours layover with Kenya Airways. Good transit hotel, close to the airport. The hotel is clean, but the room feels a bit cramped. The service is excellent. Very professional staff, who offer great recommendations for things to do in Nairobi. ##### Jacob Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasuyuki, Tokyo Jul 11, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The stuff helped me a lot when I arrive late at night and leave in the early morning. Noisy dogs were outside during the night mosquitoes were in the room but it should be Nairobi. ##### Yasuyuki Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Stanley Jun 19, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not what advertised! This hotel was not even the same building as what is advertised on the hotels.com website. For financial reasons, they had to downsize, and so it is a house in a neighborhood and the beds are crammed into tiny rooms. Also, it is 1.5 km from JKA as the crow flies, but takes forty-five minutes to get there because of terrible roads. ##### Stanley Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Martine, canada Apr 14, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Convenience Cheap, not too far from airport. Room clean. Not easy to get hot water when you are short. ##### Martine Stayed 1 night in Apr 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Peter Feb 22, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Mosquito Transit Lounge I start with the positives. It is a cheap accommodation near Jomo Kenyatta Intl. Airport, although it is not as close as you would expect. The staff was really excellent, very polite and helpful. The breakfast was simple but good, wi-fi working. The bed was very comfortable and the hot water was available 24 hours. And now the negatives... The biggest issue - mosquitos !!! You cant escape them inside this accommodation, regardless if you close windows (which is unthinkable as there is no air-conditioning and the temperatures in Nairobi are really high) or open them, they are everywhere in numbers ! Also in the bathroom and they are really annoying. The liquid electric repellent didnt prevent them from action. The mosquito net is provided, but if they are already inside the net, it doesnt help. So I ended up using repellent on my hands and neck for the night ! And besides this building, no mosquitos at all during my whole trip... Another problem - barking dogs around. You have a calm night and every half an hour a stupid dog starts barking somewhere, more join him and this lasts for minutes and then starts again. You cannot sleep, so loud it is. The access from the main road (with bus stop) is via unpaved roads, so be prepared for a lot of dust if you walk and it takes almost 30 mins. The accommodation is not marked at all, so taxi drivers have problems to find it. They offer own transport from/to the airport for 13 USD. If they solve these problems, it will be a good choice. ##### Peter ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stanley Jan 17, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I always stay overnight here between a late-night arrival at JKIA and an early morning departure to Tanzania. ##### Stanley Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Manne , Germany Dec 28, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very good oprtion for a tranist Lounch .

A brilliant place to stay if you want a very clean, simple, and convenient place to stay near Nairobi Airport. But best to phone then directly for taxi 'pick-up' (c. $13.00), rather than trusting a taxi driver to be able to find it easily. Because of traffic, best to allow at least 45 mins for returning to the airport, if travelling Mon-Fri before 10.00am ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul Nov 10, 2017 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Very mixed When I arrived it was dark. Very dark and no power, no backup, no torches. A pretty rough area and access to the yard through a lake. Breakfast was ok. I guess being close to the SGR and the airport, most people just stay one night. But it is cheap. Allow at least an hour to the airport at peak hourd ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 12, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Nov 4, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Apr 30, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cosmopolita Rome Colosseum, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Rome-Hotels-Hotel-Cosmopolita.h48599.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Orange](https://www.expedia.ca/Orange-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d6340891-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Leleshwa Getaway](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-Leleshwa-Getaway.h32404433.Hotel-Information) > > [Western Sahara home hotel Nairobi ](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-Western-Sahara-Home-Hotel-Nairobi.h105212974.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Balconies in Chambersburg](https://www.expedia.ca/Chambersburg-Hotels-Hotels-With-Balconies.0-0-d7339-tHotelswithBalconies.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kirkland](https://www.expedia.ca/Kirkland-Hotels.d8469.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Olooltepes Picnic Site](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-Olooltepes-Picnic-Site.h50594433.Hotel-Information) > > [Romantic Hotels in Kalispell](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalispell-Hotels-Romantic-Hotel.0-0-d6056415-tRomanticHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Ulwazi Place Hotel By Trianum](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-Ulwazi-Place.h44802854.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Hotel in North Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/North-Bay-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d6134289-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Look Up Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-LOOK-UP-GUEST-HOUSE.h48368160.Hotel-Information) > > [Treebo JD Residency Mohali](https://www.expedia.ca/Chandigarh-Hotels-Treebo-Trend-JD-Residency.h29690282.Hotel-Information) > > [Galaxy Resort & Lounge Kitengela](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-Galaxy-Resort-Lounge-Kitengela.h34784340.Hotel-Information) > > [Winter special 10% off weekly:RESERVED PARKING and free beach chair tower one305](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Rare-Findreserved-Parking-3rd-FL-Beach-View.h36094273.Hotel-Information) > > [Korompoi Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Korompoi-Motel.h46939601.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in The Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Blue-Mountains-Hotels.d6129678.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Townhomes Savannah](https://www.expedia.ca/Savannah-Townhomes.d6034190-aaTownhomes.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Rock Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nairobi-Hotels-ROCK-BEACH-RESORT.h49009182.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Nanaimo, BC (YCD) to Tofino, BC (YAZ-Long Beach)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/yaz/nanaimo-to-tofino) > > [Flights from Arnavutköy (IST) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ist/yyc/istanbul-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Nassau (NAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/nas/halifax-to-nassau) > > [Flights from Ferno (MXP) to Schiphol (AMS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mxp/ams/milan-to-amsterdam) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ylw/toronto-to-kelowna) ### Cars > [Car rentals in San José](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Juan-Santamaria-Intl.d5196371.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [National Museum of Indonesia](https://www.expedia.ca/National-Museum-Of-Indonesia-Central-Jakarta.d6106208.Vacation-Attraction) ### General
