Cathay hotel — Hotel in Biashara ward

I have traveled to Nakuru on several occasions in the past few years but this is the first time that I have stayed in the Cathay Hotel. It was a two week stay. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. The location is great and it is in a quiet neighborhood. The room was slightly outdated but was very acceptable and very clean. I give it a below average rating based upon value. It is very overpriced. One can stay at a similar hotel at a much reduced price. I expected more for the price.
