The Hotel itself is old and the AC is really weak. The best thing about the hotel is the pool area which is really nice. The staff is very polite and helpful. Food and drinks as well as all other extras are very expensive. I payed more than 4 Euro for a 0,4 draft beer. The WiFi is very weak or doesn’t work at all. The hotel has 4 stars but it’s not up to standard anymore. The prices for rooms, breakfast and extras are way to expensive. The rooms are clean but the interior is old and heavily used. For the prices they charge I really can’t suggest the Hotel to anyone. But I want to the thank the staff because they try hard.

Pool toppt Rest des Hauses

Hotelzustand ist schockierend. Meine Hotel.com Zimmerbuchung ist die billigste Version über dem Restaurant/Küche. Wirklich nicht zu empfehlen auch wegen des schlechten Geruchs. Musste 45 Euro Aufpreis zahlen, um ein einigermaßen okay Zimmer zu bekommen. Hotel.com Beschreibung ist irreführend. Gym hat keine funktionierende Klimaanlage und dementsprechend heiß. Hotel benötigt dringend Maintenance. Das Haus ist ganz klar eine ‚Cash Cow’ ohne Investitionen. Der Pool ist allerdings super. Pool und Personal hat mich zurückkommen lassen.

The stay was rather OK despite the lack of air conditioning (due to the age -37years- of the hotel). The check out was different. I ended up bearing another name and was asked to pay for my stay. I was presented an invoice for 202 000 XOF. The person pretended that "hotels.com" was not paying them and that "hotels.com" would reimburse me afterwards! This has ruined the rather positive opinion I had of the place. I eventually paid only for the room service I used after a rude fight with the hotel personnel.

Hotel bello all'estero ma poco pulito e confortevole dentro. Stanze poco pulite. Il personale è piuttosto scortese e indifferente ad ogni richiesta.

Une belle fin de vie !

Superbe hôtel vieillissant (essentiellement pour les chambres) qui bénéficie d'un parc, d'une vue sur mer et d'une piscine de toute beauté. Le petit déjeuner n'a rien à envier à ceux des meilleurs hôtels parisiens. Malheureusement la vie de cet hôtel est comptée, puisqu'il devrait être entièrement refait prochainement.

Propreté des chambres incontestable. Le personnel était très accueillant et disponible. En revanche le service en restauration était beaucoup trop long et la nourriture passable et de piètre qualité pour un 4 étoiles (sans comparaison bien entendu avec un 4 étoiles français.....).
