    The staff was amicable, the room was quiet, everything was fantastic. There was a wide range of food for breakfast, it was delicious! The property was in the heart of the city. Had tea and goodies at Via Via Caltural cafe, nestled 1 mi of the hotel. I recommend the place.

    The room was really nice and quiet, we didn't even want to leave because it was so cozy. It had a bathroom inside, so convenient! We also liked having a safe box, ironing stuff, and an electronic key card - all those little things made our stay even better! 🔒.

    The location was good and perfect, for example, Local Market was at a short distance from the hotel. Booked a room for a twin bedroom:)))

    I had a fine time at Wakawaka House. The staff was affable and attentive. My bed was extremely comfy and the room was big with a nice bathroom. The location was perfect, just a pleasant stroll away from Uhuru monument. The hotel also had a good restaurant nearby. The airport was just a 10-minute drive away.

    The location is great, with the hotel being in a peaceful area but still close to the city center and the Maasai Curio and Culture market, only a 5-minute walk from the Local Market.

    The location was perfect, close to the center and all the local markets and restaurants. We really enjoyed the helpfulness of the owner, David, were very good to assist us with tour plans and any issues that arose. The breakfast and living room were also great amenities. The presence of the watchdogs was a cute bonus, always ready for a cuddle.

    Convenient 24/7 front desk , lovely garden and shared lounge , and a choice of a la carte, vegetarian or halal breakfast.

    I absolutely adored the company of the four enthusiastic dogs following me everywhere. They were just so.
