Nice property.
This is a great property location and charm. The pool claim sends you to another property. Pool pump not running and stairs into water missing. Di ning options in surrounding area more reasonably priced than hotel and very good. Street children begging are relentless.

The lobby, bar, and restaurant are beautiful. The hotel is right in the center of town and easily walkable everywhere. The rooftop terrace is perfect for sunset. The staff and service were great. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Hotel La Residence
The hotel has always been charming, good rooms clean and comfortable. The hotel has been remodeled, looks nicer but the bathrooms are a disaster, smaller in some rooms and water leaks everywhere. too bad.

Ett mycket dåligt bemötande från receptionen och vi fick inte rummen vi hade bokat. Vi fick ostädade singelrum trots att vi bokade dubbelt rum. Som tur var vi där en natt! Ett mycket hemskt hotell

Bonne situation
Hôtel de bonne qualité. Situation dans la vieille ville parfaite. Personnels agréables. À l'arrivée notre réservation réservation non pris en compte, nous avons été surclassé dans la suite pour une nuit. Ensuite chambre classique un peu poussieure sans Frigo. 😕 L'hôtel à un groupe électrogène qui permet d'avoir du courant car beaucoup de coupure électrique dans le ville.
