A cozy guest house

4.67 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviews78 months ago

This is a wonderful, safe place to stay, especially if you are visiting KALRO or Lion's Eye Hospital, which are very close. There is a good work area for a computer. The family is super friendly and I enjoyed meeting every one of them. Breakfast and dinner were provided whenever I was in. The attached apartment is quiet and comfortable, and the main house is available anytime. I will be staying here on my next trip.

Furnished Studio Apartment at NHC Kileleshwa

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviews2 months ago

What a nice, quiet place, and what a wonderful host! The building is part of an upper-middle-class residential area. Both a large supermarket and a store with a big selection of fruits and vegetables for better prices are very close. The apartment's kitchen is extremely well equipped, including a microwave, a big fridge with a freezer, and a huge pot that came in really handy. One of the highlights was free drinking water. Matthew has a filter at home, and he refilled a 10-liter bottle for me whenever I needed it. Another highlight is a free cleaning service once a week, including a change of bedsheets and even laundry service for your clothes. The internet connection/Wi-Fi is good enough for making video calls and working remotely. Power outages are relatively rare, and when one happens, the power usually comes back within an hour or so. Matthew is super positive, always ready to help, and smiling. He works for an NGO and is both very interesting and easy to talk to.
