Honestly the cleanest, safest, friendliest and naturally endowed back packer?s in Nairobi.We are located in an old mansion, sitting majestically amidst swaying jacarandas and mango trees. A large expanse of manicured gardens lead you into the hostel. Our location is close enough to city centre (8 min drive to be precise)but far enough to be private. u get to live in one of the choicest, calm n SECURE, flower festooned residential areas in nairobi. yes ! we are in posh Lavington, where the old colonial houses and their natural environment is still preserved.|The hostel has clean, large rooms with plenty of windows to let in the sun and breeze .
We have 3 private balconies, where residents can smoke , lounge around or have a tusker malt.(the famous kenyan beer) you can take a dip in our large swimming pool order` nyama choma,` n sit n read or sip a drink under the ` bandas` along the poolside.|We have a classy restaurant where special menus are available for backpackers, and the COOLEST PUB in the neighbourhood, with 48? dstv and a poolroom to play snooker.u can pitch your own tents n camp in our garden (campsite fee is Ksh.450/day). or you can hire the tents from us, we light bone fire in the pit outside the pub and this is the favourite place of travallers to enjoy their drink, meat n meet in the evenings. come n experience us. you will enjoy your time with us and ENDORSE us.
