African Sky
Pros:

Its clean, comfortable and properly maintained. The evening staff i met on arrival was very friendly.

Cons:

I was leaving very early the next morning so I ordered packed breakfast. They messed it up by claiming that someone else took it. That was careless. The order was well documented but someone failed to identify the correct room number.

Mauvais rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Établissement bien placé.

Cons:

L’accueil a été assez froid.
il n’y avait personne à l’hôtel et quand on es arrivés aux alentours de 12h la personne a l’accueil a fait les gros yeux en disant « mais le chek in c’est pas avant 14h!! ». On le sait, on aurait juste voulu laisser au moins des affaires mais elle ne nous l’a pas proposé. On est donc repartis et sommes revenus à l’heure indiquée.
On a dû demander où était le bar, où était la piscine, si on pouvait dîner, aucune information ne nous a été donnée par la réceptionniste. Elle nous a donné les clés les chambre et ne nous a pas non plus indiqué par ou aller.
Il n’y a pas de bar avant 15 ou 16h!
Au petit déjeuner il manquait de choix.

Too short! In about midnight and out by 7:20.
Pros:

Had to leave early, so I did not have time to sample what was on offer. The room was comfortable.

Cons:

The WiFi was very weak and unstable. There was no face cloth, shower gel, or body lotion in the room
