The Narobi Transit Hotel is quite nice for the price. The room is simple but clean. I you are American, think "Motel 6." Be aware that it is not near the airport. It is a good 30 minute drive. They can send a driver for USD 20 or KS2500.

The hotel is basic but it is clean, it has satellite tv, free in room WiFi. It is close enough to Nairobi city centre. It is a good hotel for the money.

Disappointing hotel overnight transit
No free wifi as advertised & shuttle ride round trip should have been $25US - there was no such thing I paid to & from $50US. I paid $73.00 & it was only 55000 Tz shillings - so will not recommend to anyone - it was also around an hour from airport. Unsatisfied customer.

Probably more of a 2* hotel
The hotel was rated higher, but I thought it was in the 2-star category. Dirty walls in the lobby and hallways, curtains and towels stained in the rooms etc... and small cockroaches in the rooms. The sheets were clean though, and for that I was appreciative. But the hotel needs to be better managed overall and be prepared for some surprises in terms of quality lapses

Adequate hotel
