Lovely looking hotel right in the centre of the city however the hotel is not fully ready ie there were no cushions for the sun loungers to use by the pool, some areas still under construction and breakfast is not the best. For the high price paid, it is not worth it at this point in time. It will be once everything is set up.

Nice little boutique hotel that has seen better days. Great mattress, each room has TV w/ Netflix & couch which I loved. White towels very stained, shower dingy white etc. Terrible food. Still, nice to be right in the center of town with a pool. Check if there is a party as these can get loud ( wld be great if property provided earbuds and told guests of events BEFORE arrival in country).

Sejour agreable au Mansa Marina

Jai passe un agrĂ©able sĂ©jour dans 1 cadre idyllique. Les Ă©quipes ont ete formidables en passant par le petit dĂ©jeuner avec Paola tres serviable, souriante et les equipes du restaurant ainsi que la rĂ©ception. FĂ©licitations au Chef pour sa cuisine excellente et a ses equipes, tout le monde est souriant et disponible. Merci Ă  Alice, Sousou, Eden toute lequipe Ă  notre ecoute, souriant et pleins de bon conseil. Le seul bemol est la piscine pas nettoyee les sieges et matelas de la piscine inutilisables car pas propres vers la fin du sejour ils les ont nettoyĂ©, il faudrait les changer. Le 2eme bemol sont les chambres qui sont spacieuses agrĂ©ables avec une bonne literie mais les douches ont besoin de renovation au sol. Il faudrait Ă©galement disposer 1 poubelle du cote Plage pecheur ou delimiter la zone car les dechets s entassaient devant notre fenĂȘtre. Les Ă©quipes de menage, notamment GisĂšle ont rendu le sejour agrĂ©able en veillant a bien nettoyer les chambres. Personnellement j'avais une autre personne qui s'occupait de ma chambre Ă  qui il faut rappeler que losqu on est 2, il faut tout mettre en double papier serviette Toutefois je reviendrai avec ma famille j'espĂšre que les rĂ©novations seront faites car lhotel est trĂšs bien situĂ©.

Peut mieux faire pour le prix

Cadre agréable avec la marina autour, l'hotel est constitué d'un ensemble de bungalows dont la qualité peut varier de l'un à l'autre. Pas de porte pour la salle de bain. Chambre confortable et propre mais peinture défraßchie. Petit déj correct mais sans plus (pas beaucoup de produits frais). Transats vétustes à changer urgemment. Petite piscine à l'eau fraßche à disposition. Esplanade en béton. Endroit trÚs exposé au vent donc pas des plus agréables.
