I was perhaps one of the last persons to stay mid March right before the world locked down for Covid-19 pandemic. This is a small hotel is located right on the beach with about 18 rooms, most rooms with spectacular sea views. I had one of of the sea facing rooms with an expansive balcony. The rooms are larger than average with high ceilings and well maintained interiors. This is a great hotel hotel if you want peace,quiet less crowd, rest and recuperate, read or focus on work or study. This hotel has larger sister hotel with similar name in the neighbourhood which made it so confusing for for taxi and Uber drivers. Twice, I was dropped off at their bigger hotel while not paying attention.
The food was great, the staff were very friendly and willing to go out of their way to be helpful. One night I had Salmon for dinner, which was really nice considering how far salmon would have travel to get to your dinner plate in Mombasa. Due very few guests during my stay, breakfast and dinner were made on order. The room came with all standard amenities including, espresso machine, mini bar, safe, and ironing tools and bottled drinking water.
One thing you should be aware, like most places in Mombasa the non portable water is extremely hard making it almost impossible to get a single bubble from soap or shampoo during showers...feels like...I was perhaps one of the last persons to stay mid March right before the world locked down for Covid-19 pandemic.

One thing you should be aware, like most places in Mombasa the non portable water is extremely hard making it almost impossible to get a single bubble from soap or shampoo during showers...feels like half sea water. On the negative, their bed linen including towels were too dated and faded to off white. Overall, a great stay and would definitely stay here again.More
