Spirit of Saint Louis

Happy to be back in the heart and soul of Saint Louis. The Residence is more than a place. It's the historical center of a city whose past and future are connected, where religions and people mingle, where the Fleuve Sénégal joins the sea.

Nice property.

This is a great property location and charm. The pool claim sends you to another property. Pool pump not running and stairs into water missing. Di ning options in surrounding area more reasonably priced than hotel and very good. Street children begging are relentless.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I loved the character that the hotel has. The staff at breakfast were so sweet and kind. The late night receptionist who was an older gentleman had no customer service and we had to call to let them know we were checking in late and he was poor at communication. The room itself had an issue with the shower water going on the floor. So based on these it’s not value for money. Also the towel on the floor was dirty. Better off staying with locals or at an airbnb. The restaurant was cool though and staff the guys who served us there helped salvage the hotel. Also the cleaning ladies were super sweet!

Bonne situation

Hôtel de bonne qualité. Situation dans la vieille ville parfaite. Personnels agréables. À l'arrivée notre réservation réservation non pris en compte, nous avons été surclassé dans la suite pour une nuit. Ensuite chambre classique un peu poussieure sans Frigo. 😕 L'hôtel à un groupe électrogène qui permet d'avoir du courant car beaucoup de coupure électrique dans le ville.
