Very decent hotel with good service. The wi-fi is good. The DSTV was good. The rooms are small, but if you are traveling on business you won't spend much time there. Good security and the showers always had very warm or hot water. However, the neighborhood is very very difficult. Loud, crowded, lots of fighting during the day and night because of the matatus and the night clubs. If you like to party and will be moving through the area on foot, then the traffic and noise won't bother you. If you need to get in a vehicle, you will have a very difficult time. I'm not sure how other reviewers measure distance, but this hotel is not "just a few blocks" from the CBD. The CBD is about 2 miles away from this hotel.
