Good for a stop over.

Easy check in. Always very nice staff. Good breakfast. Comfortable room with good water pressure and fast wifi. Limited (very) tv channels. Make sure you use the mosquito net.

A solid, affordable option in NBO

Super nice staff. Nice big room. A little hot without AC, but windows allow breeze (just use the mosquito net). Breakfast was basic but fresh. Maybe they could mix it up a bit but when I was staying there were not many guests so that's probably less cost efficient. Nothing really to do in the local area and you need a taxi/uber to get anywhere. However it's very much on the right side of town for the airport.

just ok

The only thing going for this place is how close it is to Wilson airport. I wouldn't stay there again. However, if you are on a tight budget and need to stay close to the airport, then this place might work out for you.

Don't go

First no hot water, as in cold water coming from the hot tap. Then no water at all from the hot tap. Then co cold water. At each stage reception told me it was being fixed. No restaurants for a very long walk and taxis are reluctant to come along the rough track in front of the hotel. Food is poor in the hotel.

My favorite stay in East Africa

West Breeze Hotel was my favorite of half a dozen places I stayed in East Africa. The rooms were spacious, wifi worked well, room was clean, shower was great, free breakfast was excellent, restaurant had good choices at good prices with the food being delicious, and staff was always very helpful when I had questions or needed something. Location was also great, being fairly central.

Best place I've stayed for price, quiet and safe!

For price this place was excellent, free Buffett daily at breakfast, the area was quiet, verses others in downtown. Never, Stay downtown, Noise, Traffic, Safety! This hotel staff were great, they gave us a mini fridge for our room and assisted us with Uber rides. There's a cheap salon on site, and a mall right down street has good food. We will stay again and again.

My stay was on the whole good, rooms are small and the complimentary tea and coffee came with no milk, so I had to buy the milk from the restaurant as and when I required, as there was no fridge to store any chilled items like milk.

The building is unusual and basic but the welcome makes up for any defects. Breakfast lacks imagination but it is good quality. Will use it again.

It was okay

The staff were very pleasant. The room was very clean, although needing upgrade. The price was about 20% too high for the type of accommodation. I was looking for an overnight from the airport because I was in transit. The cost to & from the airport made the cost for the night even higher.

Not Ideal!!

Don't know whether it was because we had just come from luxury in Zanzibar, but this hotel was not what we were looking for. The sheets did not feel clean so we slept on our clothes and the bathroom was not very welcoming. No AC which is never a good thing in such a hot country. Staff were nice and welcoming but overall this was not an ideal stop for us.
