If you're looking for a hotel in Dakar, this is your best choice. The Wakola team -- particularly Mr Diallo and Florentin (at the restaurant -- are the kindest, most generous, and most welcoming hotel staff I've ever experienced. The hotel is clean and beautiful, and has everything you could possibly need. Mr Diallo goes well out of his way to help you, including answering any questions or making any arrangements on WhatsApp beforehand. The free breakfast is wonderful, and dinner at the rooftop restaurant is delicious and very reasonably priced. The hotel's location is perfect and safe -- it's especially good for anybody (like me) attending a conference at the Université Cheikh Anta Diop, as it's just a 20-minute walk or 5-minute taxi away. There's also a convenient supermarket and bureau de change just outside, and hailing taxis (via the Yango app) was always easy and fast. This is one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had, and I can't wait to stay with Wakola again on my next trip to Dakar. Mr Diallo and Florentin, THANK YOU!
