The hotel is boring. Unless you’re going to just have a quiet vacation. Bring your own towels. Theirs are old and gross. Bathrooms are dirty. Phone in room never worked and was never fixed even after request. Fridge is filthy and barely works. Glass shelf is dusty. Tiles in the pool are chipped/broken/ or missing. But the staff was pleasant for sure. Overall I cannot recommend this hotel. I would never stay there again. The amount of money I paid here was not worth it at all.

Fruendly, convenient and helpful staff.

This hotel is located close to the beach and a shopping centre. The staff are all very helpful and friendly. Any issues are dealt with promptly and effectively. The hotel needs updating in certain areas and room curtains need to be replaced to give a better impression. The room has a T.V. and great AC and a kettle to make hot drinks. The hotel pool is wonderful and there is a basically equipped gymnasium which would benefit from more modern equipment. Overall I had I very good stay and the hotel was a great experience made by the staff themselves.

Peaceful place to stay, but not on the beach.

Breakfast was ok but not very exciting. Hotel is not at the beach ! So you need to take a cab to get there. Hotel is a bit aged but still ok. Clean. Water of the shower was not warm enough. Airco was doing his job in hot weather. We appreciated the fridge in the room. We were late for breakfast (till 10) but reception called us to ask if we still wanted breakfast and we could eat till 11.

Nöjd Mombasaresenär!

Var i Mombasa för första gången och besöket gav mersmak. Jag ar handlat både i citymall och på hantverksmarknad till stor belåtenhet. Jag har också passat på att träffa vänner, som jag kommer att behålla för livet :)
