Mission stays need an operator who can issue a VAT invoice with a KRA PIN, offers weekly housekeeping, and will hold a room on a purchase order rather than a personal deposit.
For this audience the single most important specification is housekeeping included. Serviced apartments with housekeeping are the default format for corporate stays, mission travel and the first month of a relocation, because they remove the entire problem of hiring domestic help before you know anyone in the city. In Nairobi the serviced segment is deepest in Westlands, Kilimani and Riverside, and it is priced accordingly.
