    There was a bus stop in the vicinity. A kind of special service. It took about 5 min by foot to get to uhuru park. Westlands neighborhood was definitely worth visiting.

    Superb central location: This hotel is perfectly situated right in the heart of the city, making it incredibly convenient to explore Nairobi's attractions and amenities.

    Minor noise factor: There was some noise present due to the central location, but it didn't significantly affect the overall experience.

    Great value for the price! The location was ideal for my business trip, close to all the key sights, and I appreciated the efficient and friendly staff. The room was clean and well-appointed with all the necessary amenities.

    The breakfast was limited in variety and could have been improved with fresher options. Although the hotel location was ideal for my needs, the street noise could be a bit loud in the early hours of the morning.
