Comfiortable Stay

Comfortable, if meandering, hotel in Nakuru. Welcoming and helpful staff. WiFi quite good - 3G on phone and reliable. Relatively comfortable (bed a bit hard but some may like this), with a good shower. Bathroom sink small, which makes using it challenging but otherwise more than ok. Quiet leading to peaceful sleep.

Check the beddings

It's not the Waterbuck that was! They should improve in their accomodation quite alot. The dining is okay and the staff are welcoming and also neat. It has been my choice but this time round it was a total let down.
