It's convenient located 15 minutes to the airport by taxi. I don't know of anything closer. my only complaint is the pillows are too HARD. ##### Duane Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Richard Nov 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities If you need a room close enough to the airport for sleeping ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Joseph Dec 12, 2025 Disliked: Amenities The worst hotel ever. It is a scam! Nothing is good about it. No elevator. Breakfast is like an outdated boarding house with 2 flasks of hot water and milk. Baguette and butter with warmed croissants. Flies everywhere. The shower is in the toilet and the shower pours on top of the toilet bowl. No phone to contact front desk which is one person. Saw exactly 3 people. The cook that doubles as waiter and receptionist that has no idea on how to use the POS. No sockets to charge. Reception is just a small room with outdated chairs. Avoid this hotel. It is better to go into Dakar. ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean Remi Oct 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Tres bien placé proche de l’aeroport. Gerent le transfert avec un taxi de l’aeroport. Restauration efficace et ouverte jusqua 22h. Personnel a l’ecoute et pro. Etat neuf. Je recommande surtout la veille ou a l’arrivee dun vol car dakar est tres eloigné de l’aeroport. Attention, escaliers pour monter en chambre, l’ascenseur n’est pas encore dispo. Donc attention aux personnes agees. ##### Jean Remi Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rama Sep 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Parfait ##### Rama Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Mohamed Jul 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Un bon hôtel pour une nuit d’escale à Dakar. Très proche de l’aéroport. Personnel professionnel et accueillant. Bonne cuisine. Quelques problèmes de moustiques à gérer. ##### Mohamed Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Farmstay Burnaby](https://www.expedia.ca/Burnaby-Agritourism.d9520-aaAgritourism.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Harbor Delight on the Bay - All the modern amenities plus a Private Sandy Beach!](https://www.expedia.ca/Norfolk-Hotels-Harbor-Delight-On-The-Bay-All-The-Modern-Amenities-Plus-A-Private-Sandy-Beach.h37766152.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel Dior Camping de l'Océan](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Dior-Camping-De-Locean.h44113431.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottages Wakefield](https://www.expedia.ca/Wakefield-Cottages.d59953-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [acom Hotel Berlin Kurfürstendamm](https://www.expedia.ca/Berlin-Hotels-Acom-Hotel-Berlin-Kurfurstendamm.h118912.Hotel-Information) > > [IRIS HOTEL](https://www.expedia.ca/Dakar-Hotels-Iris-Hotel-Ressort-Space-Et-Resort.h38218256.Hotel-Information) > > [The Johnstown Estate](https://www.expedia.ca/Enfield-Hotels-The-Johnstown-Estate.h906965.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotelgandiol](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Gandiol.h45758323.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Free Airport Shuttle in Guarulhos](https://www.expedia.ca/Guarulhos-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Airport-Shuttle.0-0-d6025674-tHotelswithFreeAirportShuttle.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [un séjour inoubliable.
