Disliked: Staff & service
Not so good. Staff seemed quite miserable. They charged extra for paying by visa card. However, the navette service was good and the person who checked me out was helpful although he was the only person I came across in the hotel who was.

Good Food, Nice Hotel, No English TV, No WIFI, Bathroom Issues

The food, other than the breakfast is pretty good. The hotel is well maintained, except the elevator smelt funny. The bathroom however was so small (no bathtub at the level I picked) that you had to put your feet in the shower area when sitting on the toilet. Also, the shower area had no curtain/stall so when you showered there was water all over the floor. There was no drain in the floor so I'm assuming the cleaning staff must have mopped it up. Until they did, you had a pool of water in the room. No english channels other than CNN. Extremely poor wifi internet.

Bon hotel

Hotel convenable pour une escale à douala. Petit déjeuner en buffet bien fourni. Service agréable. Quelques vétustés : carte magnétique de chambre régulièrement non fonctionnelle, salle de bains usée, vitres abimées. Séjour agréable dans l'ensemble. Peut être un peu cher pour la qualité de l'hotel.
