There are apartments coming up along thika road and they are at the booking stage. I need advice on which is the best floor. I was considering second floor. They are 5 floor apartments

Ground Floor - You are the guard. All visitors to the block will stop there for directions. When thugs visit, you will be the nearest target. God forbid when there is a sewer problem.

2nd, 3rd & 4th Floor - Your mother will be worn out by the time she gets to your place.

5th Floor - Illegal and the City Council will one day catch up with you.

1st Floor - BEST.

BTW - this is from experience.

Agree with GG to some extent. 1st and 2nd floor are the best. I consider 2nd floor a better blend of privacy, security and accessibility.

The best floor to stay in an apartment is the ground floor especially far from the entrance,.You will have the comfort that comes with it, climbing stairs even to the first floor 2 or 3 times a day sucks .

I think top floor might not be the best bet for the long run. Consider repairs for ceiling boards & leakages. If the roof is not well made... you and your floormates will be the only ones who care!

My preference is 1st Floor to 2nd floor. Less exercise than upper floors, less disturbance than gf.

1st or 2nd are the best option...ground floor only good if the block is furthest away from the main entrance to the apartment complex

Go for 1 or 2nd floor for reasons raised by GG above

@ Caveman, I think it depends. If you have alot of madenis (debts) go to the top most floor.
