overrated, unfriendly, overpriced and inhospitable

There was no hot water, the light was intermittent, the television didn't work throughout my stay and the front desk staff were all quite inept, clueless and borderline rude. There were ants everywhere in the room.

No-frills lodge

Budget lodge located at the western end of the Senegambia, near Turntable. Property is a bit worn, but the hosts are lovely and very friendly. The room would be better if air conditioning was included, but it comes at an extra charge. Also, no towels or soap are provided in the room. Mosquito net was large and covered the entire bed. Lovely wooden doors and furniture. Breakfast was OK, but it was a bit messy with drippings all over the serving trays - they should have someone there to clean as people are serving themselves. Wifi worked well. Overall, it was a reasonable stay.

Amadou

Disliked: Cleanliness
The linen was not changed in a timely manner. That raises questions about hygiene. The toilet was not cleaned with sanitizer or bleach solution leaving the toilet with a discernible smell of urine. We had to purchase sanitizer from outside to clean the toilet. There were large ants crawling in and out of the room through gaps in the doorways. Again, we had to purchase insecticide from outside to take care of the pesky ants. Mr Drammeh (the tall one) and the restaurant crew did the best under the poor management that they find themselves in. The level of management at this hotel is woefully inadequate. We wouldn't stay at this hotel again for even $5.

Hotellet ligger perfekt vid Atlanten, med milsvida sandstrĂ€nder och för dem som vill roa sig lite mer finns Senegambias utbud nĂ„gra minuter bort i taxi. StĂ€dningen Ă€r mycket bra och maten i hotellets restaurang Ă€r bra. Personalen Ă€r vĂ€nlig och tillmötesgĂ„ende om du behöver hjĂ€lp, men det saknas en portier pĂ„ hotellet. HotellomrĂ„det Ă€r kuperat med stenbelagda gĂ„ngar och det saknas en kĂ€rra som kan transportera bagage eller andra tyngre föremĂ„l mellan reception och hotellrum. Det saknas ocksĂ„ kryckor och rullstol om olyckan skulle vara framme. Ett inslag som mĂ„nga tycker Ă€r trevligt Ă€r den lilla apkoloni som finns pĂ„ omrĂ„det med jĂ€mna mellanrum. 10-15 gröna makaker som tyvĂ€rr matas av obetĂ€nksamma turister. Det gör att du kan ha en apmamma sittande pĂ„ balkongrĂ€cket nĂ€r du minst anar det. Hon Ă€r först och frĂ€mst ute efter bananer eller annan frukt, men vill det sig illa kan du bli av med mobilen om du lĂ€mnat den ute pĂ„ balkongbordet. Överlag ett trevligt mellanklasshotell med fördelar och nackdelar.

De accommodatie was in feite OK : rustig, mooie kamer, goede ligging, goed ontbijt . Wat alles evenwel kapot maakte, was dat er 1000 euro uit onze kamer 61 gestolen is . Vermoedelijk door poetsvrouw omdat enkel zij toegang tot de kamer had . In dit verband ook heel arrogant behandeld door de general manager Jim . Bovendien weigerde hij elke tegemoetkoming of ondersteuning . Wat begon als een sprookje is geëindigd in een nachtmerrie !
