Whenever someone is considering a trip to Nairobi, the first thing they need to decide is where to stay.
There are a few different types of accommodations to choose from, and each has its own benefits and drawbacks.
In this post, we'll compare condos to the two other most popular options: hotels and hostels.
First, let's take a look at the pros of staying in a condo while in Nairobi:
1. You'll have more space than you would in a hotel room.
2. You'll have a kitchen, which allows you to cook your own meals and save money.
3. You'll have a washer and dryer, which is especially useful if you're staying for an extended period of time.
4. You'll have more privacy than you would in a hotel or hostel.
Now let's take a look at the drawbacks:
1. Condos are often more expensive than hotels or hostels.
2. They're not as centrally located as hotels or hostels.
3. You'll need to book them in advance, as they often sell out.
So, should you choose a condo when travelling to Nairobi?
Ultimately, it depends on your needs and budget. If you're looking for extra space and don't mind being a little further from the city centre, then a condo is a great option. However, if you're on a budget or need to be close to the action, then a hotel or hostel may be a better choice.
