Pros:

Roach and mosquito infested. Very noisy. Room had a very bad smell. I booked my room through Expida. Receptionist and manager said they did not receive payment and wanted me to pay cash. Shillings or USD.

NoSleepAdenBay
Pros:

Aden Bay is a perfect place for those who want to party all night long. African beats POUND until 3am daily, and then from 0300-0500 the street youth of Nairobi are yelling and laughing and then yelling some more and then at 6am church music starts blaring both live and from loudspeakers. It is totally impossible to sleep. Other than that it is quite fine.

City Hotel
Pros:

The hotel was generally okay but with a few issue here and there.
The hotel is located in an area which is busy both day and night so one couldn't really get a good sleep especially on the weekends
Unfortunately my mosquito net was torn and very dusty
The toilet didn't have water which scared me a lot had to check out a day early

I appreciate the tv set and free wifi provision by the hotel

The worst hostel I ever stayed
Pros:

Very disappointed with this "hotel". First of all, you cannot call it a 3* hotel.. It looks like a motel, downstairs there's a disco-pub-restaurant, and on the 2nd floor there are rooms.
The location is terrible, dangerous area.
The sheets were dirty, shower we even didn't try it, really disgusting. All furniture very old.
The music was playing all night, even though the receptionist told us it will stop at 22:30. Around midnight, they started to cook, and all the smell was entering to the room.
We had a breakfast included, but didn't try it cause after the night of no sleep, was not appealing at all.
The only positive thing was that at the entrance there were security guys controlling all people who enters.
Not recommended at all, and I was not expecting that Expedia will have such kind of "hotels" in their list...
