Superb B&B! The room was spacious, clean and with fast wifi. After a day of exploring the stay was just like coming home. The staff is also super helpful and got us a taxi to Ouidah for a great price. The location is also great in a nice neighborhood.

Just two words: Great Location ! And I would add, great staff to help you enjoy your stay & perfect accessibility to go around Cotonou. The facility takes the extra mile to confirm your little stay requirement by phone days before arrival, even though the online communication was ongoing with day/hours delay. People there are professionals and very helpful. They will take the initiative to make your stay a smooth and pleasant one. You just need to communicate. I really wish they will have room for me when I next return to Cotonou. Also, the leader of the facility is hands-on, and can take initiative beyond your expectations. Lastly, the food suggested to me by the likable staff a the counter was beyond my expectations as well. I like that place very much!

Beautifully designed in local craft and materials. Staff were kind, brought positive energy to our stay and always on hand to help at any time of day. The breakfast was delicious and of good quality, better than what you would get in a large chain. Excellent location with plenty of local amenities within walking distance, the restaurant next door served very good local dishes. Just a short drive from the airport and from key tourist landmarks
