Clean, basic and comfortable accommodation.
Pros:

Clean, modern and comfortable but is basic accommodation with a number of failings: poor shower, rooms are lit up by corridor lighting at night so impedes sleep, there are no room facilities (cups, coffee, etc) and internal floors can be very slippy under foot after rainfall (but expect rains!). Staff are friendly and polite which helps on any stay.

Good value for money. Friendly staff
Pros:

The hotel property is clean but a bit old, it could do with renovations. Staff are very friendly and willing to help. Restaurant food options are ok, and breakfast was good but with limited options. The swimming pool is clean. The hotel is very good value for money.

Absolutely precious people working here.
Pros:

The room was spacious and cool. However, the pillows and bed were hard. Bedsheets and towels were changed every day. I had an issue with my shower, but this was resolved very quickly when mentioned at reception. The place was immaculately clean, and ALL the staff worked extremely hard to keep it this way. A special shout out for Ranjab the trainee waiter at breakfast service. He tried his best and was always smiling and happy to help.
Also, Junior, one of the evening waiters, his cheerful, smiling face, was always a pleasure, and he's generally chatty banter was fun.
What this place lacks in amenities it makes up for with a wonderful staff team.
The use of the beach at the Jacaranda hotel is a bonus as it's really beautiful and relaxing.

Pros:

Hotel manque un peu d'amour !
Quelques petites choses brisées ici et là...
J'avais la chambre " Deluxe vue sur la mer"
Oubliez cela !! La mer loin et accessible par petit chemin tres sale et dangereux, tres pollué partout sur les bords de chemins et routes.
Nairobi plus propre.
Coté Mombassa, plus sale partout et tres musulmans... tres strict partout ... tout le contraire de Nairobi.
Voilà

a very meh experience
Pros:

Average, small hotel; the pool's deep end was 1.5 meters. The rooms were spacious and had AC, but not all. The TV didn't work in some rooms, Wi-Fi connection was also lacking. The restaurant's food was pretty mid, not authentic coastal cuisine, I visited other restaurants outside the hotel. The distance to the beach is a bit of a walk, and it can be noisy if you get a room close to the road. However for the price at the time, it was pretty fair I guess, but if you can pay a bit more you can get better hotels in a 500m radius.

Thumbs down
Pros:

Had seen this place from the outside and thought would be great to bring my family for lunch. Menu looked impressive and thought we were in for a treat. Well, after waiting for about an hour the meals finally came out though not completely, one was missing. The portions size was extremely small, also not as described on the menu. Chicken burger was to be breadcrumbed but wasn't, the tiny fish was bland no seasoning, tarter sauce missing. My masala chips craving continues, cause what was served wasn't masala chips. After waiting about 10 minutes I called the waitress to inquire about the missing meal, I told if not prepared please just cancel, but to my surprise she went to the chef window and the meal was there just getting cold. No one thought to ask why a meal was there, even the chef who was right next to it. Shocking.

My observation is the chef isn't dedicated to his work, it comes through in what he cooks. No heart guess it just a job. Very sad for such a place. The staff seem unsupervised and lacking motivation.

Overall can't recommend. Lots can be improved starting in the kitchen.
