My preferred hotel in Douala

This is my preferred hotel in Douala. One issue is the bed with edges that are too soft and one can easily fall off the bed. Other than that, everything else is great.

This hotel is located in Akwa and accessible to many areas. Finex voyage, market, and shopping center are within a shot walk. The guest wifi was non accessible. The hotel had to provide me with their own internet access. Overall, the staff were very helpful. I would not hesitate to book another stay on my next travel to Douala.

The hotel seem a bit worn out for its short period of time. The customer service was helpful especially since they forgot to pick me up, and later send a vehicle to get me. Breakfast for great, love the varieties. The rooms were small as compared to what I saw online, however, the bed was comfortable. All the same love the customer service, very friendly.

The problem of dirtiness and crowds around the neighborhood could be of the city and or state level of responsibility other than that the hotel is performing okay in terms of safety and cleanliness. One other thing that could be added is the fact that there is no shower curtains in the bathrooms.
