9.5/10
Amazing
As an expat, I'm almost questioning my life after eating white food every day 😂. Today at noon, I finally had Chinese food in Kenya. The stir-fried dishes tasted very authentic. Every bite was like being back in China. It was an instant comfort!
9.1/10
Great
This wasn't just a stay at a hotel, this was like home. I was treated exceptionally well. Amina treated me like a friend. She was exceptional. Carolyn, the owner, was friendly and we became friends after only visiting for a short time. I would highly recommend this place to everyone for a pleasant and relaxing stay. It was like being home with family. If I come through Nairobi again, I will definitely stay at karolinas Homestay.

We truly enjoy our stay. The staff took care of our needs. They also provide driver who took us around nairobi. We stayed here for two days before moving into the city. Highly recommended. Thank you Christine and team for your kind hospitality.

Awesome place! I really enjoyed my stay here and look forward to visiting again.
7.2/10
It is a safe walking distance to the Unep conference hall. The village market is right next door. A different breakfast is served every morning, so you can taste different flavors. The first day there was no hot water and the dryer was broken, but they fixed it the next day.
6.9/10
This was advertised as a 3 bedroom apartment. But it was a room inside a 3 bedroom apartment which came with its own bathroom. (Which I thought was false advertising)The shared living room was beautiful and spacious as well as the kitchen. The staff was nice and helpful. There was some initial disagreement about if I had paid for breakfast or not and I shared a screen shot on my side then they came over and prepared breakfast. The staff was nice and friendly.
6.6/10

6.5/10
