Our stay was Unacceptable!

The pictures are nothing like the place in person. As soon as we arrived the lights were flickering and went out several times. We have 3 kids and had to be in the dark for almost an hour. Then we asked if we could turn the air conditioning on, she told us we had to pay $11 a night to use it after already paying for our stay online. Mind you, we are in Africa which is near the equator, its hot here. She also charged us for bottles of water and tried to the sell the house to my husband for $400,000. We only stayed one night and had to move to a hotel the following day. We will never go back!

Besser für Leute, die mit Tieren verreisen

Wir waren 10 Tage dort. Was am meisten gestört hat waren die Hunde und die Katze, die auch in der Küche rumlungerten. Schon am zweiten Tag waren Tierhaare auf dem Brot. Auswahl war sehr begrenzt. Wir sind dann nicht mehr zum Frühstück als wir sahen , dass die Katze in der Küche auf der Arbeitsfläche rum spazierte. Handtücher müssten manchmal auch angefragt werden. Die Chefin war komisch zu uns. Schade um dieses Objekt. Ist wohl eher was für Tierbesitzer.

호텔이 깨끗하고 직원들도 친절합니다.

호텔시설도 아주 만족스럽고 객실담당자도 친절하고 모두 좋았습니다. 타 호텔에 비해 와이파이상태도 아주 좋네요. 단지 호텔을 찾아갈때 주변에 교통표시판이 있으면 좋을것같습니다. 앞으로 호텔측에서 교통에 관해 개선책을 마련하면 관광객 유치에 더욱 도움이 될 것 같습니다.

Nice bed and breakfast

This is a nice place for a getaway, the rooms and areas are very clean and the staff do a fantastic job. Pool was nice and well kept and you can get drinks on your own and just pay before you leave. The only drawback I would say is the dog kept at the compound who barked loudly at night.

B&B familiar, tranquilo. Con piscina agradable.

Fuera de la zona turística, en un barrio auténtico y tranquilo. Sólo quince minutos a pie hasta el Senegambia Highway donde se puede tomar un taxi barato. Buen desayuno. Buena atención al cliente. Pasamos una semana aquí y lo pasamos súper bien.

Rustig verblijf in mooi stukje Gambia

Het verblijf in Villa Calliandra is heel goed bevallen vanwege de kleinschaligheid en rustige locatie. Kamer heel netjes en comfortabel. Het ontbijt heel goed verzorgd en de gastvrouw/heer attent. Goede mix van het je naar de zin maken en privacy respecteren. Enig nadeel is dat het wel een stukje lopen is naar de High Way, 15 minuten. 's Avonds een taxi nemen of zaklantaarn mee. De mogelijkheid om zelf te koken is fijn. Er zijn geen restaurants heel dichtbij, wel op afstand 15 minuten lopen. Of anders in Senegambia.
