I generally will never choose a shared apartment when booking an AirBnB. I have actually only chosen one in the last 15 times I have used this site. I don't know why I decided to go against my normal routine, but I am extremely happy I did !! I was checking in late, after 12AM, due to my flights arrival time and Lydia was so incredibly kind and waited up until I got into the place around 1AM. She immediately gave me the run down about locations of everything within the place and let me relax without interruptions. I was so impressed with her prompt responses up to this point and I knew that in person it would only get better. I was definitely correct!!! She is on point with every concern and she is exudes and incredibly upbeat and compassionate personality. Lydia's place is awesome...Lydia is just as awesome! I am staying here every time I come to Kenya, for at least 2-4 nights. I will definitely be able to get rid f my jetlag and get my initial work from home completed before I venture off to the other tasks I may have in Kenya. I never thought i would be accepting of a shared space, because I am always wanting privacy and the ability to come and go as I please. Lydia definitely has won me over and I will happily make her place my number one stop each and every time I am in Kenya. Trip number 18 to Kenya.....that says a lot!! 25+ AirBnbs and this will be my first stop each and every time. Thanks Lydia!! You are an awesome persona nd you better keep in touch!!

Such a great stay! Lydia’s place is great — conveniently located, safe, very clean. The room is cozy but reasonable, and the space has everything you need. Even beyond that, Lydia is just a fantastic person and goes above and beyond as a host. She took me out for dinner twice, and knows all the hot spots in the city. Definitely stay with Lydia - you won’t be disappointed!

Lydia is so thoughtful! She really makes herself available to her guests and is fun and enjoyable to be with. The apartment is not big but is always clean and tidy and Lydia is often offering to share something she has cooked, but she is also out and about living her own life. She will probably offer to go out to dinner with you at least once during your stay, and even though the place is very centrally located with Sarit Centre shopping and Westlands night life, she makes a point to make sure you can find everything you need. A very enjoyable stay with an awesome host!

Lydia was the perfect host and by the end of my stay, we had become friends. Service was impeccable and she will help you with anything that you may need during your stay. Her place is centrally located and extremely good value for money. Her apartment is located within a safe compound with security and it was also convenient for Uber drivers to find. Check-in and out were easy and I had my own set of keys.
