Pros:

Room cleanliness exceptional including the grounds. The pool water smells sweaty. Added chlorine would improve this. Otherwise, the pools looked exceptionally clean which is nice.

Cons:

Breakfast. The yogurt tastes bad and the honey dippers need cleaning. The pastries should be sweeter (prior to any chocolate syrup drizzled or sweetened powders). Also, improving the availability of rental cars and options to choose lengths of rental would be delightful.

Perfect stay in the Gambia
Pros:

We had a really lovely time at the hotel, we liked the facilities and the atmosphere was always very calm. The room was spacious and very clean, thanks to our housekeeper Marie, who always greeted us with a smile. Breakfast had lots of choices and we also quite liked the restaurant.

Cons:

water in the pool was quite cold, especially in front of our swim-up room
