It was fairly easy to get to from the airport - they told me which buses to takes and it worked - the staff were very helpful in helping me figure out the next leg of my journey

The hostel rooms are small, but comfortable. The shared bathroom is nearby but may not often have warm water and flushing toilets that work. Bit of a spruce up needed on the whole place, but the friendly, helpful staff and the great value, user pays breakfasts, make for a pleasent stay.

The location was superb for me as it was inside walking distance to the Kenyatta National Hospital exactly where I was working during my stay. A Java Home was right next door with free WiFi access, which was also quite convenient. The site of the hostel had everything I needed: a restaurant with affordable prices; a kiosk for requirements like cellphone minutes, bottled water, biscuits; and even a beauty salon for a pedicure to lift my spirits following a long week. This was all for a affordable price that was lower than anything else I could discover inside the area. My principal complaints are that (1) there were not curtains or shades on my window, (2) there were not screens or bed nets to avoid getting mosquito-bitten at night, and (3) the warm water inside the showers was not really nicely explained, so I ended up taking cold showers for half of my stay prior to I figured it out.

The location was fantastic for me as it was within walking distance to the Kenyatta National Hospital where I was working during my stay. A Java House was right across the street with no cost WiFi access, which was also quite convenient.

This was all for a affordable price that was lower than anything else I could locate in the area. My main complaints are that (1) there were not curtains or shades on my window, (2) there were not screens or bed nets to avoid getting mosquito-bitten at night, and (3) the warm water in the showers was not extremely nicely explained, so I ended up taking cold showers for half of my stay before I figured it out.

Some staff are very helpful and respectful to the customer, such as James and the manager. Relatively budget accomodation.
