The pictures shown in website is completely opposite of reality. Yes it’s water Front but the hotel is literally falling apart with mold everywhere. The hotel denote was dirty and cracked wood. Toilet not working, the bedsheet dirty. I don’t believe this hotel was maintained for the last 50yrs. It was completely nightmare. When you first come in, the staff make you sign a paper. - do not sign! We immediately checked out of there. We cannot bare to sleep in dungeon.

I have never been so disappointed at a hotel, I had to change like three rooms because the toilet flash was not working. They was an awful pipe smell of sewage in the toilet. customer service was appalling. The food was ridiculously expensive and was just trash. The Wi-Fi was a joke.

The advertised superior room was not for 4 people, this was disclosed on check in, despite giving a call to the hotel reception a day before to confirm the booking of 4 people, on arrival the receptionist James was not courteous and asked me to book another room. Upon showing all evidence on my booking using Xpedia app and reservation at the hotel. The room was not clean. We checked out the next day early morning. The hotel staff are not professional and couldn’t even sympathize with our situation

ROOM OK but could be better..shhets not veey clean. I aslo had to pay a higher price than the Hotels.com.price 214 USD but was charged 22 USD as theybused their own exchange rate. Staff nice. Extremly expensive breakfast 2500 KES /20 USD not included in the room It is not Luxury but very run down.Restaurang seems to very popr - so.many complaomt and expe aive so I never tried it but find very good places outside with normal with decent prices and high quality Beach very dirty with platic bottles and debris everywhere. Also sewage system from Mombasa goes straigh out in the sea so swimming there to avoided. However the 33 m swimming pool was nice and clean and the gym ok in partcular the gym master trainers hat gave training couses in the morning. But overall the hotel.is overrated and it seems like no investment is done to improve the pla e.

The staff were super courteous, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. With reported new management now in place, there is optimism for positive changes, especially as renovations are expected to improve the property in the near future. Should technical input be required in the future, I am a civil and structural engineer and would be willing to offer professional guidance if helpful!
