Great location, extreme serene and quiet. Comfy beds.

Nothing major. Just a bit annoyed by the mosquito net setup.

6.0

Hostel calme, bien situé à seulement 5 minutes à pied du centre Market. Il est possible de laisser ses valises sur place si l'on part quelques jours à Mombasa, ce qui est très pratique. Le personnel est très aimable et accueillant.

Nous avons réservé sur place et demandé le prix en shillings kenyans (ce qui est tout à fait normal). On nous a donné un prix, mais après avoir réalisé que nous n’étions pas de Nairobi, le personnel nous a dit que le tarif n’était valable qu’en dollars. Il a alors “dû” convertir le prix en USD, ce qui a évidemment entraîné un coût plus élevé à cause des frais de conversion. Nous avons trouvé cela assez étrange, surtout si un local veut réserver comment cela se passe-t-il pour lui ? Quand nous avons exprimé notre surprise, on nous a simplement répondu : « Si vous n’êtes pas contents, vous pouvez partir »… Hahaha.

"Good place to sleep."

8.0

Cosy accommodation in a concrete/brick double storey up market residence with a large grassed compound. Quiet. Good spacious common room. Spacious kitchen.

Too few bathrooms. While functional they could do with a renovation. Breakfast was self-serve and very basic - tea, coffee, bread, margarine & 1 packet of milk. Cutlery was inadequate ( there were just 2 bowls). The property is about 4 km from Nairobi downtown. Transport is via matatus, Uber or Bolt.
