I stayed at Elvis’s apartment in Skynest for several days and was very satisfied. The apartment is clean, modern, and well-maintained, with cleaning every second day, which I appreciated. The view from the balcony over Westlands and part of the CBD is quite nice, especially in the morning. Elvis was a reliable and friendly host — communication was easy, and he checked in regularly without being intrusive. Everything was straightforward, which made the stay comfortable. It’s a place I would return to without hesitation.

Elvis's place was really great. Nice view on the 7th floor, super fast WiFi (over 100 mbps when I tested), nice large shower, super comfortable bed, and really nice kitchen. If someone has been in or to Nairobi often, they might start to take for granted how nice it can be when every single thing works as it's supposed to, and this place goes above and beyond! Combine that with a seamless check-in, perfect location, and a mini-shop as well as an outstanding restaurant on the ground floor, and this is a well-deserved 5/5! I will definitely be coming back :)

Great deal in central location in Westlands. The building is very nice and modern with rooftop bar and pool, grocery store and restaurant on ground floor. There was a housekeeper keeping everything clean every other 2-3 days changing bed linen and everything so the place was kept clean. Nothing to fault this Airbnb.

Excellent. The unit is in a wonderful building in an amazing area. Elvis was very helpful when I had challenges and communicated effectively. The unit was sparkling clean and had literally everything I could ask for. I would definitely stay here again.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at Elvis’s place! The apartment was spotless, well decorated with attention for detail and had everything I needed. Also the infinity pool, gym and sauna are top notch facilities. Elvis was an incredibly responsive and helpful host, always quick to answer our questions and he even gave me a free early check-in. The location of this place is also perfect, right in the heart of the expat city center. I will surely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable stay!

I've stayed in 4 buildings in Westlands over the past couple of years, and the amenities, location, and safety of this one are unbeatable. The apartment was clean and comfortable. Great for single people or couples to stay in a nice area of Nairobi. I really will try to stay in Elvis's place again next time I'm in town! Definitely recommend, and I'm not just saying that.
