Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near Seni Gambia Beach, making it perfect for beach lovers and sightseeing. The friendly staff and good overall location are definite highlights. However, the rooms could use a makeover and better cleaning, and the Christmas day incident with beach vendors brought a negative experience.
The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient to explore nearby attractions and the local nightlife. The rooms, although spacious and equipped with essential amenities like a large double bed and air conditioning, showed signs of wear and had a disappointing view of unused fridges instead of the advertised garden view. The service was exceptional and truly made our stay enjoyable, providing for all our needs and creating a friendly atmosphere. The location is ideal for those wanting easy access to the beach and local attractions, serving as a great base for exploring the area. The dining experience, however, was basic and somewhat monotonous with limited variety. Overall, the facility offers a good value for money stay, with some areas needing improvement.
The hotel is in a convenient location between Kotu and Senegambia Strip, close to the beach and Monkey Park. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but some areas could use a touch-up. The service is superb, especially by the breakfast staff. The dining experience offers enough variety to satisfy hunger till afternoon. The facilities are excellent, though the finishing touches could be improved. The proximity to the Elite fitness center is a plus.
