How many verified short-stay apartments are there in Kilimani on BomaStays?

Can I pay for a Kilimani apartment with M-Pesa?
Yes. BomaStays takes M-Pesa and holds the payment in escrow until 24 hours after check-in, so the host is paid only once you have arrived and the home matches the listing.
Is it safe to book a short stay in Kilimani online?
Book and pay only through BomaStays. Every home is checked before it is listed, every guest confirms their ID before arrival, and the exact unit and host phone number are shared only after payment and ID check. Never pay a "host" directly by M-Pesa or cash.
