Accommodation with a big heart

I went alone for the first time to Senegal. I've traveled a lot, but now I'm wondering if it makes sense. I researched the risks and booked this destination Yoff and the hotel by chance. There was only one review. I can tell you that my trip was one of the best! My room, or rather my apartment, is spacious and clean. The hotel staff was very pleasant and alert. The host of the hotel took care of everything needed and beyond expectations: Airport transfers, money exchange, excursions. The manager did his job with a big heart. I don't remember ever receiving such care from anyone. A warm recommendation to travel to this hotel and to Senegal. Joy and sun, goodness and care are strong reasons to go on a trip. Full marks for Kakatar. p.s. The beach was a bit dirty, when not the so-called tourist time, summer time is also fine.

The hotel isn't luxurious, but it's clean and comfortable. It offers quiet and a great sea view from the terrace. The breakfast is excellent. The owner, Mr. Abdul, is very friendly, professional, and helpful, as is all the staff. It was a very good and comfortable stay. albergo non di lusso ma pulito e confortevole. Regala quiete ed un ottimo panorama dalla terrazza. Ottima la colazione. Il Titolare sig. Abdul e’ una persona molto cordiale, seria e disponibile, come tutto il personale. E’ stato un soggiorno molto confortevole.

Séjour très agréable et accueil au top

J'ai beaucoup apprécié mon séjour dans cet hôtel simple et sans prétention, avec un accueil très chaleureux Abdoul et babacar, aux petits soins ! Le petit dej sur le toit avec vue sur la mer est un must bien sympa. Merci encore
