The hotel is conveniently located close to the city center with easy access to various sites, but the noise from the nearby highway can be disruptive. The rooms, although facing the main road and lacking in soundproofing, are decent, though the breakfast options are limited. The service is exceptional with helpful and friendly staff members. A bit noisy due to the proximity to a busy roundabout, but manageable during the day which allows for exploring the vibrant town. Overall, a mixed experience with noticeable noise issues but great support from the kind staff.

The rooms, facing towards the highway, were not the most soundproof, leading to noise disturbances from the street. The location, while not far from the center, may not be the safest especially for tourists. The breakfast was below expectations.

While the hotel is close to the city center and many attractions, it is next to a roundabout leading to noise disruptions at night. However, during the day, it's safe and convenient to explore the lively town.

The hotel had a few drawbacks but also some positive aspects. The rooms were dirty, extremely outdated, and noisy at night. The management was unhelpful and rude when addressing complaints, and the outside view from the room was unpleasant. However, the service was outstanding, with the staff being warm and attentive. The hotel's location, though noisy due to its proximity to a busy roundabout, was convenient for city center access. The dining options were limited, and the facilities were somewhat lacking.

The hotel rooms are a bit old but very comfortable and nice, equipped with fans and mosquito nets, although not all rooms have AC, only a few have fans. Expect tiny standard rooms without a fan, but they provide a table fan upon request. The management can be rude and unhelpful in handling complaints, which can be upsetting.

Location

The hotel's location is central, convenient to the National Museum, parliament, and Uhuru Park. However, it is not recommended to walk around after dark due to safety concerns. It can be difficult for Uber drivers to find the location due to the confusing road layout.
Dining

The dining experience is acceptable, but the street near the hotel can be concerning for safety. The breakfast is average, and there are limited options available.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and nice, but the interaction with the management was disappointing. Despite the nice room, the attitude of the leader upset me, and handling my complaint was not handled well by him.

The hotel had clean and well-stocked rooms, but they were a bit small. It's a good value if you just need a place to sleep. The service was friendly and helpful. The location wasn't as comfortable as expected, being close to a highway, which made transportation a bit inconvenient. The dining experience was average, with prices being higher than expected. Overall, the hotel offers basic amenities suitable for a short stay.
