"It is not where it says on the map. I turned up expecting to be in actual Banjul but I was somewhere miles away. They didn't have any rooms even though I was booked in. Took me to another place that was nicer but again, not in the location it said. "

"Misleading information about the rooms available to book on Expedia: Room listed with shower but there was no shower. BUT a room with private bath was offered at a more expensive price upon arrival (BAIT & SWITCH).
ROOMS WITHOUT SHOWERS have access to a community bathroom facility BUT The toilet located across from the room did not work and one must go to the other end of the hall for the toilet. The shower st the end of yhe hall does not have hot water. Leaving one working toilet for 3 rooms....

"Meget familiært, både med personlige og andre gæster.
Elendig køkken forhold personale er dybt inkompetente. Sjældent mad på stedet trods al a carte menu , nogle ingen mad / morgenmad eller flere timers ventetid. 3 km via tør vej til nærmeste spisested.
Dog er dette Afrika og det taget i betragtning så har det været et godt sted , søde personale."
