Bernard and his wife, Jane, have created an oasis in Nairobi. They have thought of everything one needs and have done so in style and comfort. The rooms are stylish and spacious with a quality mattress, bath and shower with serious heat and water pressure. The kitchen is well kitted out for self-catering. The lounge is spacious. Rooms come with a terrace. One can BBQ on a grill. Breakfasts are hearty and generous: great coffee/tea, fresh breads, fresh fruit, pancakes/flapjacks/crumpets, crepes, eggs to order, yoghurts, juices, cereals... To top it off there's space, peace and quiet and a wonderful team that goes out of their way to make one feel at home.

Very friendly host. Breakfast with daily changing fresh fruits, toast and eggs. Clean room. Quiet neighbourhood a bit off the city center. Good WiFi, had one longer blackout but this seems unusual.
