Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Easily to say its the worst property i have ever stayed in. Checked into a room smelling with overused sheets and mold. Complained to the front desk and they laughed over it saying the room is clean. Tv remote doesnt work. AC remote doesn't work. No water pressure in bathroom. Checked out on the 2nd day and they refused to refund the remaining 5 nights. I have never met such a dishonest establishment where they have terrible facilities and still try to hold you hostage.

Solid budget option in Douala

DK Hotel is located in Bonabéri, just outside of Douala. It is a good option for those who wish to stay outside of the main city and maybe beat early morning traffic to hit the highways leading north and west out of the city. Accommodation in Douala is not cheap, but DK fills the mid-price range quite well. This is a basic hotel that has everything that a budget traveler needs for a night or two: comfortable bed, great wifi, and hot water in the shower. I would return in a heartbeat.

Decent hotel for international traveller

The booking with hotel.com was very easy and DK hotel found my reservation upon arrival. The check in was fast and manager on duty assisted with taking my luggages to the room. The room was clean and decent. The A/C worked very well. Although the TV had no video, it was immediately replaced. Although the hotel is located on a busy street, security was adequate as every guest was screened and visitors had to deposit their ID's with the front desk. Overall, I found DK hotel a very good bargain and worth the price for customer service, cleanliness and convenience to shops and public transport.
