Verified traveler

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

moody receptionist and unreliable shuttle bus.

unfriendly staff,unreliable shuttle bus,the same food served as breakfast, room not cleaned cosinstently and smelling straff (i had to offer a roll-on to a room attendant ). Not being rude or fussy about the roll-on but seriously they don`t wash. Overall, i had a bad experience with the door man AKA the old man who offers to wash your car every morning for money, He offered to push my car when it broke down and expected me to pay him in dollars. I offered 1,000CFA for pushing my car for less than 10 yards but he wasnt having it so he made a huge scene out of it and cursed me in BASSA language which i am familliar with but little did he know.
