Close to lac not too rose

Lac rose not so rose anymore… a pity… the hotel is basic, but good enough for a night or two. As Senegal is known for taking a longer Eid, morning service was a bit late

Really enjoyed my 3 nights

Really enjoyed my 3 nights here and I found it very relaxing. Staff are great, really helpful and very friendly. The setting is great and people in the surrounding area are great. The lake is fascinating as are the salt harvesters. The only negative point (for me) is that had I been travelling with a partner I would have wanted slightly more privacy in the toilet! (The toilet is the other side of a wall from the bed but this wall doesn't go up to the roof... and there isn't a door! British people (like me) can't cope with things like this!) I will probably return here for my last stop before flying home.

Bel hôtel, bien situé... Dommage, que lorsqu'on en sort à pied pour aller se promener au lac, à n'importe quelle heure, on soit dérangé par des vendeurs de toute sorte... Belle piscine... Très bon petit-déjeuner, le meilleur de notre séjour au Sénégal, avec un personnel à l'écoute, très sympathique... On y restait qu'une nuit, trop bête !

Endroit simple, sympathique, bien situé.

Excellent accueil dans cet établissement où on m'a laissé la possibilité de choisir entre plusieurs chambres. Personnel souriant et très serviable (au rythme africain...). Le paiement par Carte Bancaire n'étant pas encore disponible, le patron m'a spontanément offert le dernier repas car je n'avais plus d'espèces avant de rejoindre l'aéroport. Bon emplacement face au lac rose, chambres basiques mais propres et confortables, avec de nombreuses prises de courant. Tarifs très corrects.

Hôtel en face du lac rose

C est un hôtel avec le charme des maisons tout en paille qui n apporte pas le confort français mais une douche toilette et électricité. Confort qui ne se retrouve pas partout en Afrique. Dépaysement total. Personnel TRÈS agréable et avenant. Je recommande fortement cet hôtel.
