I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has some charming aspects, it also has its drawbacks. The beach access is fantastic, and the options for dining cover a range of local flavors. However, the rooms felt outdated, especially with the old TV, and there are some issues with Wi-Fi connectivity. Overall, it's a decent choice for the price, yet it could use some modernization.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the service was quick to fix our AC issue, the rooms weren't as comfortable as I had hoped, and there was a noticeable smell in the bathroom. On a positive note, the dining options were quite diverse, especially with the local and Indian dishes. The beach proximity is a plus, but there are definitely areas where the hotel could improve, particularly in updating facilities.

My stay had its ups and downs. On one hand, the location by the pristine Bamburi beach was fantastic and truly memorable. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired; they had an old smell and definitely needed an update, especially the outdated TV. The dining options were good, but I felt they could use some variety. Overall, I think the hotel offers decent value for the price, but it could improve in a few key areas.
