Infi Stays is a block of serviced apartments on Musindi Road in River Road, with kitchens, lifts and parking on site. What decides it is the quarter: the working city at full volume, and this site's own warning that River Road is not a place for after dark or a phone in your hand.
01What it is
Infi Stays is listed as a four star apartment property with the practical things a longer stay in the centre needs: a kitchen or kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator and washing machine, air conditioning, a bath and shower, towels, sheets and toiletries, plus a safe, iron and board, and non smoking rooms. The building lists lifts and wheelchair access, 24 hour security, free wifi, free car parking, laundry and dry cleaning, a car rental service and a telephone. Where the list is thin is everything outside the room: no restaurant, no bar, no pool, no gym, nothing on site to eat or sit in. You are booking a serviced flat with a lift and a guard, not a hotel with services.
That makes Infi Stays a base rather than a destination. You get a kitchen, a washing machine, a safe and a parking space, which suits anyone staying long enough to cook and wash, and anyone arriving with a car or arriving by lift with heavy bags. It does not suit anyone who wants a lobby, room service or a bar downstairs, and it does not suit anyone uncomfortable in River Road itself. The block is 0.83 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 11 minutes on foot in a direct line, so the centre is reachable on foot in daylight. Treat it as a working city address with a locked door, not a place to wander at night.

04Standing in River Road
These hotels sit in River Road, the eastern grid of the Nairobi CBD, a quarter that runs on matatu stages, hardware, lodgings and cheap kitchens, and the working city at full volume. Food is cooked in front of you and the country arrives in the city here, so the streets ask the most of a visitor. You are 0.68 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 9 minutes on foot in a direct line.
This is the CBD's eastern half, and the half the brochures skip. It is where the matatus stage and where the cheapest good food in the centre is cooked. The site is plain about after dark: not after dark, and not with a phone in your hand. River Road suits anyone wanting nothing tidy and a clear sense of how the city actually runs. It suits no one who wants a quiet evening or an easy walk back.
