NasraRating, 5 stars1 month ago

My husband and I had a wonderful 2-day stay at this apartment in the heart of Nairobi. The unit was very nicely furnished, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Its central location made it especially convenient for exploring the city. The hosts were exceptional—always available online to answer our questions and offer help whenever we needed it. After being stuck in traffic, they were also kind enough to extend our check-out time, which we greatly appreciated. We truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking this apartment again on our next trip to Nairobi. Highly recommended! Nasra
