Good hotel
Solo stay for 2 nights. Airport pick-up and drop off were done as pre-arranged by phone call. Wifi was good. Bed was OK but not great. Shower had hot water and fair amount of power. Bathroom and bedroom were spacious. Lights and power outlets in room worked well. Hotel doesn't have much atmosphere or decoration, but it works for a basic hotel.

Relaxing place for a few days
After calling the hotel to organise a transfer from the airport all was under control. The taxi driver was very welcoming and I arrived at the hotel I was made very welcome. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable with good air conditioning and plenty hot water and good WiFi. The fridge was well sticked and the street has many supermarket, corner shop within walking distance. Would recomend this hotel.

Hôtel très bien situé, bon rapport qualité/prix
Nous recherchions un hôtel en centre ville, celui-ci est très bien situé à proximité de la place de l'indépendance, du marché, de la gare maritime etc..

Midt i Dakars menneske- og trafikmylder.
Vi tilbragte 8 dage på dette hotel og var derfor glad for, at værelset var det mest velfungerende af de tre vi havde boet på. Der var både køleskab og elkedel.
Værelse og sengetøj blev holdt super rent hver dag, på trods af al det støv, der blæste ind fra gaderne. Vi brugte balkonen meget, da temperaturen var behagelig
allerede på 2. etage.

Ok hotel in downtown
Great night attendant and the restaurant manager served me petite déjeuner after the service had closed. However when checking out I was initially asked to pay 345 cfr and then it came to 1500 then somehow he was asking for 5000. Very sketchy behavior. Overall I’d recommend staying somewhere else.

Gute Lage
Sehr zentral gelegen. Ansonsten bietet das Hotel nicht sehr viel. Allerdings ist es für Dakar-Verhältnisse relativ sauber und das Personal ist hilfsbereit.
