The staff was ready to help, and very nice. Tumbs up to Mr Sagna, the evening security Guy. Property is clean. Wifi worked well. The access to the residence is not easy. That is my only real dislike. Other than that, i liked being there.

Terrible; don't EVER GO.
I'd travel to Senegal to do volunteer work as a nurse-midwife in the Casamance area. I wanted to take a few days to visit the new museum in Dakar. I looked for a place to stay and an hour later I was asked to deploy the next day due to unanticipated circumstances. I tried to change my reservations and was told that I couldn't. I drove there to clarify why I was being denied. The manager was helpful but hotels.com and the owner of this residence were not. I was not refunded my monies and was treated rather meanly and unprofessionally. In addition what you see is not what you'll get. The images are embellished not reflecting accessibility, amenities, etc. Terrible, terrible, terrible choice. Don't think I'll use hotels.com again.

Our stay was in a big, very comfortable apartment. We were in the sea view one. It has a huge patio. Wonderful view. The main road, stores and the beach are close by. A few minutes walk. There are smaller convinence stores and hair dresser just beside the property.

Nice and Safe Hotel for a Solo Female Traveler
I stayed at the Residence Les Calanques for my trip to Dakar. It was a very lovely hotel. It had a home-like feeling to it, because the room was more like an apartment. I had a big kitchen, nice sized bathroom, big bed area, and a closed in balcony which served as a living area where I entertained my friends. The cleaning personnel came everyday (except Sunday I think, but that was fine with me). The hotel is minutes from the old airport and about 45 minutes to an hour from the new airport, depending on traffic. When I arrived in Dakar it took 30 minutes to get from the airport to the hotel. Leaving Dakar in the late afternoon, there was a lot of traffic and it took very close to an hour to get to the airport. There is a bank, Diamond Bank, not far from the hotel, as well as some nice restaurants. There are also little mini-mart stores within a 5 minute walk of the hotel. A bigger grocery store, AuChan is a 10 minute walk and you can get food and snacks to bring back to the hotel. You need a key to get in the front door downstairs so that really made me feel safe. Walking from the hotel to the main street to go shopping or catch a cab was pleasant, I didn't feel unsafe. A few nights I was out around 9 or 10 getting food and walked back and still did not feel unsafe. Also, the wifi is definitely satisfactory. Also the manager is wonderful and will work with you if you run into unusual issues like arriving very late like I did. I highly recommend this hotel!! Will stay again!

Most horrifying check in. Very unprofessional!
Manager did not honour the advertised 12 noon check in time b/c previous guest went out without packing/ storing his luggage away. I had to stay in the manager's personal unit until his staff let me in my room at 6 pm. The manager yelled at me for not staying in his unit until that guest left, and rudely told me at 7:30 pm to pack up my things bc the guest was returning to collect his belongings after 8 pm. He obviously cared about not upsetting this important repeat guest who much overstayed the 12 moon check out time. It was the most horrific experience as I felt threatened personally. This property should be delisted! Unit itself is nice but loads of construction on the nearby street.

Great place to stay.
I had great experience. The hotel manager was very helpful always. The owner also kind and flexible with the guests. Visited sometimes to see how is everything. The sea view studio is a great big one bedroom apartment with a front yard size balcony. I really enjoyed! The maids also did a good job. Stores and main road is very close.

Nous sommes arrivés tard dans la nuit, notre transfert a été assuré. Nous voudrons remercier manager de l'hôtel M. Diallo, qui nous a logés dans un appartement avec une cuisine et un hall à la place d'une chambre double que nous avons réservée. Le personnel est disponible et à l'écoute des clients
