The staff were very helpful but the TV did not work and the Internet was not very good. Not a lot of places for food in the area and the service at the restaurant on the rooftop was very slow and expensive.

Great staff - always helpful and smiling. They go above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction.
I didn’t get to visit the gym or bar to comment. It can be a little noisy at the corridor area when you’re in the room and doors opening and closing can be quite startling but not enough to wake you.

Great stay.
A clean and well-kept hotel with a very efficient and conscientious staff in every area. Rita is an exceptional person and extremely good resource for help in any area. I was well pleased with my 8-day stay. The breakfast was limited, but the meals are reasonable and very tasty.

Great Accommodations in Dakar
We arrived about 8hrs later than planned due to over booking, however the staff was there to help us download the bags and help us to our rooms quickly. A light breakfast was provided in the morning and the staff on the 6th floor were so accommodating, I have a 2yr old that slept thru breakfast so I was collecting breakfast for him. Might I say the croissants were amazing, I ended getting up for breakfast every morning to eat 2 of them. We ventured up to the 7th floor and again the staff was so nice. Our rooms were clean, the ac was great and the beds were comfy. Excellent choice of hotels

The breakfast was very good, if you wanted hot addition to breakfast you would have to ask or you would not be told. Reception staff generally friendly and helpful. Other staff sometimes appeared to have attitude. The gym is not well equiped at all, 5 pieces of equipment only. The food from the bar was not really good. So avoided it in the end. Surrounding area was horrible not many eating places or places to see or explore, the area is very run down. Also was shocked that i had to pay additional tax on the hotel when i got there.
