My stay at Summerdale Inn had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, and the room was spacious with good internet connectivity. However, I encountered significant issues with cleanliness and service, particularly during dinner. Overall, it might be an option for a quick stay, but there’s room for improvement. 😕

Dining could use improvement. The breakfast selection was limited and I found the service at the restaurant to be quite slow, especially in refilling items like sausages and bacon.

Facilities were basic yet adequate for a mid-range hotel. However, the lack of a garden or green space made the environment feel somewhat crowded.

I recently stayed at Summerdale Inn after a flight cancellation, and while the airport pickup was convenient, my experience was mixed. The room was spacious and had decent internet, but it took forever to get hot water, and the cleanliness left much to be desired. The service was friendly, especially from a waiter who was great with my kids, but overall, the hotel needs several improvements to elevate the guest experience.

I had a mixed experience at Summerdale Inn. While the location is convenient and the breakfast offered some nice options, I was disappointed with several aspects, from the check-in process to the cleanliness of the room. It's a decent choice for a quick stay, but I wouldn’t recommend it for anything longer due to the various issues I encountered.

I stayed at Summerdale Inn for one night due to a flight cancellation, and while it had some positives, the overall experience left much to be desired. The friendly staff member who connected with my kids was a highlight. However, I faced several challenges, including slow services, a dirty bathroom, and stained bedsheets. If you're stranded in Nairobi, it might work for a short stay, but it definitely needs improvements.
