    Rooms are a bit cramped and was a bit dusty when we checked in but was cleaned immediately upon request. Shower was slow in one of the rooms.

    Property has security and there is a convenience store 10 mins walking distance. Neighbourhood is safe. Host is attentive, helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and supported. We had a comfortable stay.

    There was a dog nearby the place, that was very motivated to bark a lot. My gf and me we very cool with it, but the dog could have the potential to annoy you, in case your frustration level is medium or higher.

    The place is located in a quiet area.There are security guards at the two gates you need to pass to get to the place. The studio itself is kind of small but my gf and me loved the place a lot (we had booked the Deluxe King Studio). We even felt a bit "homesick" for this place while on a short trip to Mombasa. The integrated kitchen contains everything you need for your stay. The bed was good. The host was very friendly and supportive. The hospitality was top-notch. There is a small supermarket located not too far from the place, as well as opportunities to buy from local sellers. We mostly used taxi, though. In summary, if you don't need a lot of space in your accomodation, this place is highly recommended.

    We stayed in the accommodation for a total of 1 month and can recommend it. Everything you need is there, wonderful and hospitable hosts and there is also a small outdoor area. Comfortable bed, mosquito net and fully equipped kitchen. Super safe and the compound is gated. We felt very comfortable here and would love to come back when we are in Nairobi again! Many thanks for everything

    Nothing, Everything was good to bold my understanding and experience

    The arrangement of the space is excellent, with well-designed furniture and customizable lighting. It offers full facilities for cooking and cold drinks, making it convenient and comfortable. Security is reliable, and the watchmen are friendly and helpful. Overall, it truly feels like a home away from home.

    The furniture (table and chair) is not comfortable for work but ideal for relaxation.

    A quiet and private house, located within a secure estate. The room is clean and organized well. The host, Mr. Waita, is welcoming and quite responsive.

    1.Water is warm, expect probably highest temp to be 20. You would have to turn down the water pressure pretty low to get hot water but even with it turned down , its still warm, it will not be hot. 2. It does get noisy, the estate is full of kids, and the guesthouse which is where you stay is within the parameters of the mainhouse, the mainhouse has its own gate, and there is a guesthouse gate as well. The issue is that when opening/closing the main gate at the mainhouse, you hear the sound directly, or if somebody is knocking on the main gate or the gates nearby, the thing though is because there so many kids in the area, when they knock the main gate they bang, so it can get noisy, and kids being kids will be loud so even theyll be talking outside the main gate youll hear basically everything, theres no really quiet time, good thing is i had to tell the kids to be quiet when i had meetings, and they do listen. There is a doorbell for the main house, but its to high of a reach for the kids. So dont expect quietness in this area. 3. Washing machine is not in the guesthouse but in the mainhouse, so you would have to knock on the main door, do your laundry, doesnt feel like you have your own space and freedom to do the laundry. Dryer also doesnt work. 4.i think theres a short circuit because the main switch board can occasionally make a buzzing sound for a few minutes here and there, longest time it during my stay was for 30minutes at night , so i just switched the main power off from the switchboard. 5. During my one week stay, i got one towel, ( had to ask for another) and no sheets/ pillows changed or offered to be replaced. Would be great to have/told the option regrading sheets/towels or just simply having one given considering its a long stay, without really having to ask.

    1. Host and family are friendly and helpful and also responsive to any queries i had. 2. Safe area, its an estate, so theres security everywhere. 3. Main malls such as galleria, and freedom heights mall are about a 10min drive , also there small shops sround and supermarkets as well, nice walking distance. 4. Property was clean upon my arrival, liked the big duvet as well just incase it does get cold.
