My stay was an amazing one from an amazing reception by Mr Eliud and the entire team not forgetting Mr Wycliffe from the restaurant department and his entire crew. I enjoyed the place and the other reason why the Zehneria stands out is it location being close to most of the places you would wish to visit around Nairobi

Overall, it was a very good stay. However, the flow of water from the shower was all around the place, instead of directly down and the water did not heat that much, especially if you have to take a shower early morning. Also, there were some problems with the curtain rails, which sometimes came off when pulling the curtains.

The property is run down and everything is falling apart inside The housekeeping staff one morning just opened the door and started cleaning while I was asleep in bed! When she was asked to return later she said "No I can't I have a staff meeting !" Its a great price if you just need a bed for the night - but nothing else would make me go here again
