Imagine falling into the hands of an airport taxi driver who charged you $100 for a $15 ride at 2AM, cooked up various stories to ensure you don't get to the hotel of your choice but instead took you to Dicasa hotel because of an agency arrangement he has with the hotel. Thereafter, the hotel that was supposedly built to satisfy customers connived with the taxi driver to charge you $300 for a 7-day stay (instead of $140 - $150 max). The story doesnt end here. The following morning, you woke up to have breakfast, and the receptionist advised you to carry your laptop bag along with you "for safety purposes". You immediately discovered that the hotel is not safe because of that statement, pack your bags to leave (after spending just one night), and the hotel decided to charge you almost $145 for the one night stay to cover "agency fees that you weren't informed of from the onset, and cancellation fee". That was my experience at Dicasa Hotel, Nairobi on Sunday, 4th July, 2021. Key points. 1. you don't want to stay in this hotel. it is not safe 2. whenever you are in Kenya, use the network at the airport to book an uber to your destination. 3. if you have to ride with an airport taxi, dont believe any story they tell you. It is all for the hotel commission they will get and the high fees for rides. And negotiate your cab fee before the journey to your hotel begins. And like I said, go to the hotel of your choice irrespective of the story, especially at odd hours of the night.
