About

Massive rooms ideal for families or groups, excellent hospitality, and a quiet location 10 minutes from Kisumu town and near the airport. WiFi is spotty during the day (better at night), but the all-inclusive rates are lovely and it's a home away from home for travelers on transit.

    Safe and secure neighborhood good for under age child since those kids around speaks English like there is some language policy

    Nice, locally owned lodging. 20 minute walk to local dining & shopping, more (60 min) to town. Wifi is spotty, drops regularly during day, better at night.
