Mona Lisa Guest House, Kisumu enjoys a location in Kisumu, 1.1 miles from Kisumu Museum and 26 miles from Ndere Island National Park. This guest house offers a shared lounge.

No fan, room is so hot. The beddings are terrible. The location is not safe in terms of stairs. The door locks are horrible. Safety is not their priority, just money. I would never recommend even to an enemy. The toilet is worse. Rusted toilet seat 🚽 you'd think twice before even seating on it. Not healthy 😕. No simple coffee making machine or even tea in the room. The shower, I can't even talk about how horrible it looked. Maintenance is poor. They just host. That's all they do, host but don't maintain the place.

    The host was warm and welcoming. The environment and the quiet were a plus. The houses are well-organized, clean, and refreshing. It's easily accessible to Kisumu CBD and in one of the most secure places in town.

    Room is very clean and comfortable. I didn't expect such a large room considering The pricepoint. Guards at The door made us feel safe by being helpful and vigilant. Location is excellent, quiet, yet near The City and The lakeside attractions. The host is very accommodating and approachable :)

    I absolutely enjoyed my stay here! The level of comfort in the apartment is beyond exceptional, and I appreciated how spacious and clean it was. The apartment had all the necessities, and the host, always a phone call away in case of anything, offered a wonderful welcome. I have found my home away from home while in Kisumu, and I highly encourage others to give this space a try while in town. The compound is quiet and serene, which I greatly appreciate. I can't wait to come back!

    A very clean, tastefully furnished and spacious house in a quiet area of Kisumu. It is located within a few minutes drive to the city centre and other shopping locations. It has a children's playground. The host is very responsive and always ready to help.
