Pros:

Some refurbishment needed for some rooms, but otherwise great location ( walking distance from downtown though I'd strongly advise against it during late hours). Staff were nice and friendly, and breakfast was amazingly good 👍, kudos to the Chef.

Cons:

Had to change rooms because the one initially attributed to me had some utility issues, and it wasn't ready upon my arrival even though my arrival time had been specified a few weeks in advance.
I also understand the noise around town, but found the environment particularly noisy especially at night.

Recommendable, despite some minor issues always again.
Pros:

Centrally located in the CBD of Eldoret. Restaurants, shopping and public transport in walking distance. Personnel very friendly and supportive. Good breakfast in the restaurant of the hotel. Clean.

Cons:

There is surely need for better maintenance. Safe should be accessible, warm water to be provided. Towel rack should be fixed.
