Very clean
The hotel has good facilities although the breakfast is a bit bland. Staff are always cleaning and mopping floors, in the 7 days I was there I never saw an insect in my room. Air con is extra but the large ceiling fan was adequate. Staff are all very polite and friendly. I would stay there again.

TIP
Have stayed in The Gambia on many of occasion and at the sister hotel Djeliba three times with no complaints. We decided to take our three girls with us this time for the Gambia Experience so decided to try and upgrade a little. 2 bedroom villa for five 12 night stay toilet never flushed correctly from day one reported a minimum of once daily to reception and also to the so called site plumber, was fixed on the eleventh day 2 hours before we left. Couldn't block it with toilet roll as was only supplied one per day (for five people). Room towels sometimes lucky if got three but mostly two for five people we did get five twice every other time was a trip to reception, then told they would bring to room just didn't say what day. Pool towels if you got one don't let go as could be two to three days before you seen another. Seven times in one day to get key card reset (wasn't near mobile phone) three time's back and forward to reception and still not working. Breakfast was from 7am to 10am. No started to prepare at 7am if you had a trip booked for 7-30 maybe toast and jam if you made yourself

Lovely stay
Stayed in the villa part of this hotel, couldn't fault it. Very clean, helpful staff, lovely pool and beach access from pool. Security really good, don't allow people to be bothered by local people selling things/access hotel/allocated part of the beach. Hotel drinks and food reasonably priced, other restaurants close by if eating out of hotel. The hotel owns a bar next door poco loco, which is really good for live music and drinks.
