“For a budget-friendly stay near the beach, this hotel presents an interesting proposition. The pool bar's reputation for serving the coldest beer in Gambia is a definite plus, particularly alongside decent food like the Afra. While some aspects need updating and service can be inconsistent, the presence of long-stay guests suggests a comfortable, community atmosphere for those who know what to expect.”
