Milele Hotel — Hotel in Nairobi

Milele Nairobi is not your normal hotel. It is a guest-house. Rooms are not air-conditioned, but Nairobi has a moderate climate because it is over 1,600 metres or 5,500 ft. You might want to ask for a fan for your room. There is a mosquito net surrounding the bed, and I think I only spotted three mosquitos in the room during the five nights I spent there. The breakfast is very basic, but you can have all the coffee or tea that you want. The staff are pleasant, but the kitchen is rather slow.||||Milele is located directly next to a large mosque.

There is no separation between what appears to be a residential area within the hotel and the hotel area itself. Drainage around the grounds can be improved to accommodate rain.

This hotel is close to the airport (a good thing given Nairobi traffic).

The groups tend to be very noisy, and the walls are thin, so if you stay be sure to bring earplugs. They have a really good breakfast buffet and the wait staff was really nice. Don't do laundry here though; it is ridiculously expensive-- $5 for one...
