A room near Embakasi University Hospital for a family from a village four hours away

Daniel is coming to Embakasi University Hospital for 4 weeks of treatment and the family needs somewhere affordable to stay.

Embakasi
My father Daniel has been accepted for treatment at Embakasi University Hospital in Embakasi, starting on Tuesday in December. We live 489 km away in a village four hours away, and hotel costs would use up what we have set aside for the treatment itself. We're looking for a room, granny flat or short-term rental within about 30 minutes of the hospital, for 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Daniel and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Daniel will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
