Everybody speaks English. Malls are just big with overpriced (non-Kenyan) stuff, you must visit the markets if you want to really explore Nairobi (but watch out for pickpockets and scammers)

3/5 - Okay

Moses accompanied me to supermarket & exchange bureau. I had to be picked up and there was a delay the hotel allowed me to stay until I was ready to leave. It’s close to all services. I recommend this hotel.but leave info in the rooms for guests.
