Thika Road Mall

Room and hotel are very clean. Bathroom amenities were all expired as of Jan. 26. Shower was dangerous…very slippery with no grab bar and no shelf for soap/shampoo. I put a towel on shower floor to keep from slipping. The shower also flooded the bathroom floor big time and we needed towels to wipe it up. Front desk phone was not always answered and when it was, and a request was made, it took a very long time to get what was needed and sometimes it required a second call. Lights on our floor (11) and 12 were not on and it was quite dark…other floors were lit. Airport transfers were available for $25 each way even though some sites showed free airport transportation. Also, the website mentioned a daily Managers Party…ummm no. Not the best place that I’ve stayed.

We had an extraordinary experience at Entumoto Safari camp! The Conservancy in which its located proved a truly peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of the adjacent Maasai Mara National Park, however, its water hole still brought Elephants, Zebras, Buffalos, Waterbucks, Zebras and several other animals right up to our camp (we watched them over our fantastic breakfast and lunches). Separately, our excellent guide Purity ensured that our two full day game drives in the Mara park itself lived up to their "once in a lifetime" billing, allowing us to see not only the 'Big 5', the 'Ugly 5', and the Wildebeest Migration, but also a number of more intimate encounters with wildlife just feet away from our excellent open top/sides Land Cruisers. We can't recommend this camp highly enough and certainly hope to return with additional family members: our group of 2+1 stayed in a 2 bedroom Family Tent, which could easily have also fit 2-3 additional family members (presumably via prior arrangement with camp mgmt).

Every one was very nice and accommodating
