Mercy is the perfect host you can have! She was so kind and help us a lot! You wont have problems with her! Very very recommended person! :)

Amazing value. Mercy is one of the best hosts I've had through Airbnb. I would stay again.

Vraiment très propre et sécurisé une fois dans le bâtiment. Le studio est entièrement meublé et fonctionnel. Le seul defaut réside dans sa localisation juste au bord d'un bidonville. Il ne faut donc pas rentrer.. a pied le soir. Avec les uber qui déposent juste devant c'est bon.

This place is a nice, modern studio apartment with a fully equipped kitchen. It's located in the heart of Nairobi, just a few streets over from more touristy areas and hotels. So many places are within walking distance. It's located in an auto spares district, but I felt perfectly safe and enjoyed paying local prices in the neighborhoods. The host was great, very accommodating. I will definitely look to stay here again.

Great place if you are spending a night or 2 in Nairobi. Close to where local bus picks up. Very good stay. Thank you

The place is in a very good location in town and easy to find. The apartment is well furnished, clean and very comfortable. It looks exactly like in the pictures. It's highly recommend for a short stay in Nairobi! Everything was perfect, I will book it again for sure in case of a new visit in town in the future

Mukami was so helpful and patient when I was late arriving because I got lost. Thank you so much for a lovely stay. I would definitely recommend staying with Mukami.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Mukami was really good host and communicating with her was easy. The place is confortable and clean.

I had a nice stay at Mukami's place. The apartment is right at the edge of the CBD (Central Business District) of Nairobi and was perfect for me. Everything worked out very well.

The room alone is fine apart from the peeling paint. The location was too downtown for me and i did not feel safe as i could see glue/gum sniffing guys around it.A friend took me for a drink and on my return,the street was lined with homeless people sleeping by the (URL HIDDEN) you stay there,don't venture out after 7pm. The hosts are generally very helpful and amiable.

The apartment is well equipped and in a lively area, very interesting. The communication with the host and the checking was perfect. No doubt, I'd stay there anytime again. Thanks!

Good communication, security at the gate, a lift, central area but unsafe at night. Perfect for short stays. It would just be great if there was a mosquito net around the bed!

He venido a Nairobi con mi pareja y hemos estado muy bien acogidos en el apartamento. Buena comunicación con el propietario desde el primer momento y siempre disponible durante la estancia para ayudarnos con dudas o recomendaciones. El apartamento es muy cuco, limpio y tiene de todo, sólo faltan unas tazas donde poder tomar el té/cafe. El internet va muy bien. Es verdad que está bien situado, pero es mejor evitar salir por las noches, a pesar de ello, hay guardias en la puerta las 24h del día (como en muchos edificios de Nairobi) es un buen lugar para pasar unos días!

I have much enjoyed my stay at Paul & Ciku's place and will be coming back again.

I stayed for the second time & it was great, just like the first time.

Great place for true Nairobi feel! This room is close to the center of action, and you will feel like a local. The room is well-furnished and is in good condition. The building itself is not in the best shape and is a bit noisy, but this is a minor takeaway.

Great studio with good value for my money. Just 10-20 minutes with Uber to Westlands malls, nice restaurants and magnificent night life. Safe and interesting to walking alone for a white male in daytime, but use Uber or other safe transport after dark is suggested. Good security at the Apartment hotel I can recommend Art Cafe in Westgate mall for working or meetings, the new B Club for late party dancing on Saturday nights - Best in the world! (And I have travelled a lot:-) Happy stay!

Had a great stay at Wanja's place - we were visiting as tourists, and this cosy studio is a perfect base for explorers in an easy-to-find part of town. Although we didn't meet Wanja or Melissa, communication before, during and after our stay was flawless, as was the support with getting to the apartment from the airport, check-in/check-out with Penina and the security staff of the apartment block. Would definitely recommend!

Wanja's place exceeded our expectations! The apartment is very clean, bathroom is clean and hot shower water works well, kitchen appliances all in great condition (kettle, microwave, fridge, etc.). It's a pleasant place to stay, with nice wall and table decorations. Highly recommended especially for business travelers who need a calm and clean place to relax in the evenings. Wanja and Melissa were incredibly communicative and responded quickly to all of our requests - they even helped arrange to do laundry when we needed it. We'll definitely return! The area immediately outside (downtown Nairobi) isn't the safest in Nairobi, but if you take taxi's and get dropped outside the entrance you won't have any trouble.

Wanja was a fantastic host. Came and picked me up from my previous hotel and was very flexible re: check in/out. The apartment itself is cozy and has all the basic stuff you need, although the wifi was subpar and sometimes didn't work. Although the street is quite hectic and a bit dodgy at night, the building itself is very safe and is staffed by a team of really good askaris. I would definitely recommend this if you need a place downtown.

My stay at Wanja's studio in downtown Nairobi was perfect. Wanja is a wonderful host! The location was ideal for meetings in the central business district (CBD) and provided easy access to other parts of the city using Uber, motorcycle taxis, and matatus. The studio is tastefully decorated with everything you might need for a short or long stay. I often worked from the flat because the wifi connection and ambiance were so nice. It was helpful to have a small kitchen to prepare my own meals as I was staying there for 3 months. The building provides security around the clock and the guards are very friendly. The flat is located in a rather busy area, with noise from matatus especially in the evening hours. However, I enjoy the sounds of city life and was not bothered by the musical discord. All in all, I look forward to staying at Wanja's place again in the future and highly recommend!

It was really a positive exsperiance to stay at wanja's flat it Was so central and good value for the Money the place and simple and clean and the internet Was very fast ,I can recommend the place to all people who wanna stay cheap and central in ,Nairobi and wanja is a very sweet person :-)

Best airbnb I've ever had. Excellent deal if you want to stay near the center of Nairobi.

Small and nice quiet studio in downtown Nairobi. Wanja and Eunice friendly and caring. The building has 24/7 security.

This was my second stay at Wanja's place in central Nairobi. It was another great visit! The apartment is safe and conveniently located, with restaurants, banks and shops within walking distance. The area is very busy, but the apartment is a nice respite from all of the outside activity. Wanja's place is clean, beautifully decorated and has all of the amenities a traveler would need. On top of that Wanja, is very responsive and helpful. I would readily recommend Wanja's place to other guests!

Isaack nous a super bien accueilli, vraiment serviable et arrangeant, il est carrément venu nous chercher ! L'appartement vous conviendra, très bon rapport qualité prix. Je recommande en tout cas chaudement pour l'hôte qui est vraiment génial !! Merci encore Isaack :) et si tu viens à Lyon tu es le bienvenu !!

As I mentioned in the previous review, I had a great time at Isaack's, so extended my stay. Enjoyed it a lot and as an added bonus learnt a few new cooking tricks.

Really good communication with Isaack. Everything was as described. The neighbourhood is safe. Friendly guards.

Isaac was very kind, the apartment very clean. The área not so good, very crowded.

Central Location, Comfy Room, and Awesome Host!

Isaack is a nice and welcoming host. Communication is perfect! We had a lot of great conversations, and he really made me feel like the place was home. The house is very clean and the room is cosy. the neighbourhood is hectic, with a lot of traffic, but perfect if you want to hang around in CBD (city center).

Thanks for a decent stay over 6 days. The room is small and perfect to crush in, all you need in a cozy place. Isaack invests a lot of value an good karma into the hosting.

Isaack is a friendly guy who knows Nairobi well. The place was basic, but clean, with great wifi. I would stay there again, especially since Isaack is a great conversationalist!

It was a great place with very friendly and helpful people. The location is perfect to explore the city (around 5-10 minutes to the center by feet). We really loved the roof terrace to relax after a busy day, but also to catch some first sun rays having our breakfast up there. The rooms are nicely decorated and clean, however not completely free of cockroaches. The only real drawback was that the rooms facing the inner courtyard are quite noisy. You will be the first to hear the cutlery when the kitchen opens at 6 in the morning. Still, a good bargain in a great location.

Khweza bnb provided good value for the money. The best aspects of my stay were the staff. They were uniformly professional, courteous, and personable. The wifi and rooftop deck were also pluses.

The staff was fantastic- they went out of their way to help us feel welcome and comfortable. The rooftop was also especially great!

Kwheza was amazing, the staff was so helpful. The tours and safari that they set up for us were perfect. The food and drinks at the restaurant/bar war so good. If you can not tell i have nothing but great things to say about this place and would comeback in a heart beat.

Very nice - thank you!

The Khweza has an awesome price-performance and the best staff ever. They were so friendly and helpful and made us feel super comfortable from day one. We stayed at the Khweza twice, our first room was a bit small in case you travel with heavy luggage, second room spacious. Some of the mosquito nets come with holes, but if you ask they will fix it for you. Same for the TV :)

Wow, what a warm and helpful staff. They made my stay enjoyable. The decor is colorful and energizing too, and the rooftop restaurant is truly a delight. Cleanliness was a bit of a challenge but for those passing through, Khweza can be a great place. I recommend the lentils at the reataurant and the Hell's Gate trip guided by staff!

Great place to stay. Very happy all around and the food is good too!

My friend Marlyne was happy to be in the middle of the town. She liked the environment.

Mercy was kind and helpfull all the time, like part of my family, so, thank you! The room was confortable, clean and safe, the internet very good.

The place is in the midst of all happening things. With in a walking distance for almost everything. Mercy is a great host, always trying to give her best for your comfortable stay. This is a fantastic option to stay in Nairobi.

L'accueil et le remise des clés étaient très bien organisés. Les indications pour accéder au logement à partir de l'aéroport étaient claires. Perez a toujours été disponible pour toute question. Le logement était confortable et bien équipé. L'environnement est sûr. La résidence a un système de vigile tout à fait performant. Mini market à 5 minutes et marché aux légumes à 10 minutes.

Perez was really great. She always responded immediately to mails, calls and messages and was really helpful. The apartment was awesome. It looks smaller on the pictures so I was surprised that is was very spacious. The kitchen with the oven made it possible to prepare all types of food. There is a medium-size supermarket 50meters from the apartment and an awesome and huge fruit marked about 10 minutes walk away. Matatus passing right in front of the house so public transport is easily available. Hot water worked well. There was a short power cut on one day and the water stopped running for a few hours on another day - but that is quite common for Nairobi. The area is extremely safe during the day and the apartment has security (gate, watchmen etc.). It is - however - not advisable to walk around the area after 11pm - as anywhere in Nairobi. I really enjoyed my stay and can highly recommend the apartment and Perez as a host.

We spent a great week in Nairobi at Perez AirBnB. She arranged for us to get the keys from the guard as she could not be there to meet us. Everything was pretty clear in the Apartment. The pictures are accurate and there is quite a lot of space. Perez was quick to answer our questions and was always available. This was especially true when there were power problems in the building. She kept us aware and even began searching for another AirBnB when it looked like the problems could not be fixed during the day. That's why my husband and I are glad we stayed here and met Perez. She really helped us to understand Kenya. Before I forget, the location was ideal for us. We walked to the Central Business District, CBD, and back. We walked ten minutes to the Nairobi National Museum and were awed. We walked to the corner grocery store for everything except fresh fruit and veg which we found in the open market a few minutes walk up the street. Wifi was pretty consistent and the fastest we had found in Africa. Yes, we recommend Perez' place.

We had a great time at the apartment. It was almost more like home than home itself. The apartment is ideally situated with Matatus to town passing directly outside the location. It also has a corner supermarket, within minutes walking distance, and a more tradiyional maket-place a little further away. I would recommend this apartment for short term breaks.

Perez's place was really cozy and comfortable, sufficiently equipped and safe with great wifi. Walking distance to a big supermarket, a great local fruit and vegetable market and city center, westlands and parklands are only a few minutes away and easily accessible by public transportation. Perez is so friendly, flexible and super helpful.

perezes place is my favorite air bnb place in nairobi. the apartment itself is really spacious and comfortable and the location is perfect as both city center and westlands are easily to reach. perez is easy going, friendly and helpful. i can only recommend her place.

A very conveniently located apartment with all the amenities one could ask for for a comfortable stay. Public transport is literally at the door step and a supermarket and market easily and quickly reachable from the apartment. Perez was easy to reach, available and gave handy tips that made for a comfortable stay. Like others who have stayed here have mentioned the apartment is actually much larger than the pictures portray.

I stayed at Perez's apartment from June-mid August 2015. First of all, Perez was a fantastic landlady. Upon my arrival, she took me around town, showed me where to catch the buses and helped me set up my cel phone service. Throughout my entire stay she was always available by phone to answer my questions. Whenever there was an issue with the apartment- for example the hot water heater needed to be repaired during my stay- Perez was alway super prompt in getting it done. The apartment itself is exactly seen in the pictures. It's comfortable, quiet (you can start to hear buses outside the window on weekday mornings, but that's true for everywhere in Nairobi), and secure (gated, with 24 hr watchmen). The WIFI is fast, the water is hot, there's a washing machine in the apartment and clotheslines outside the door, and there are plenty of tv channels to keep you in touch with what's going on in the world. It seems to be mostly professionals and families who live in the apartment complex, which was great. The location is about a 12 minute walk from town (or a 5 minute matatu (minivan) ride), and an easy 7 or 8 minute matatu ride from Westlands, making it very conveniently located. Matatus can be caught directly in front of the apartment. In the immediate vicinity, there's a grocery store, a couple of restaurants/bars, and a fruit/veggie market, but it's not the type of area you would have reason to spend much time in, except to buy your groceries or grab a quick bite to eat. It felt safe to me; I often walked home alone at night, but I am a large man, and people generally would not recommend doing such a thing. During the day no one has qualms about walking around the area whatsoever. I never felt threatened walking about anywhere in Nairobi, really, (except for occasion run-ins with the military in town, who attempt to extort travelers if they don't have a photocopy of their passport on them- be forewarned!). All in all, I had a great experience and would certainly stay here again if/when I come back to Nairobi. Perez is a fantastic host!

The apartment is right in the middle of town. It is easy to get to a bus station. The hustle and bustle of this area of town has its own charm. If you want to experience Nairobi as it is, stay here.
