Pros:

The location was great and central. Front desk stuff spoke English which was convenient for me as I don’t speak French. They were also very extremely friendly and helpful. Got complimentary late check out till 6pm.

A clean, comfortable, quiet hotel room, great breakfast and excellent gym equipment.
Pros:

I stayed here for nearly a week as it was comfortable and had a very well equipped gym and swimming pool. Accommodation in Djibouti can be a bit extreme, either very expensive high end resorts or cheaper hotels in the loud part of the city. This one was in between. The breakfast buffet was quite expansive, and included Chinese food to cater to the hotel's main clients.

Cons:

It's a bit pricey but that's Djibouti.

Pros:

Very new, exceptionally clean. Very friendly and helpful staff. Chinese and western breakfast served. This is a joint venture between China and Djibouti companies. Almost Olympic size swimming pool. The hotel is not located in the center but rather outside of the center). (from 15 to 30 minute walk depending on your pace.). Excellent wifi.

Cons:

TV channels are in Chinese only
