Basic business hotel, but ongoing construction
Good, basic business hotel. Exactly what you would expect from an Ibis. Facilities were all fine. Biggest problem was that there was construction going on all the time. I tried to take a call from my room and there was loud drilling in the corridor which made it pretty difficult. Breakfast was shared with the Novotel next door and pretty good.

A good business spot, safe and clean. Entertainment is nice. Need to ventilate more and better in depth room cleaning.

Cleanliness was subjective - the hallways and public spaces were clean but the room floor had a recent stains that could easily have been cleaned & daily bathroom cleaning was low standard

Thoroughness of cleaning in the rooms was not great. There were stains on the floor that looked decent enough to have been removed and a constant unpleasant smell in the room. Whilst the public areas smelled fresh the room had a staleness.

The hotel is in a safe compound downtown on Le Plateau. The rooms are pretty standard but functional. Mine smelled noticeably like cigarette smoke despite the nonsmoking signs everywhere.
I found the front desk staff to be pretty rude, refusing to help me call a taxi for the airport outright and ignoring my second question completely about leaving 30 minutes late. Ousman in particular was especially dismissive.

Highly recommended
Very convenient, close to the port to go to Goree or Casamance. Room are simple but we slept well. Restaurant and swimming pool are shared with the Novotel in the same complex.
