Terribly managed hotel

Free airport shuttle didn’t show up. I waited 25 mins. The hotel is a 2-min drive from airport. When I arrived, the managed challenged me that the driver was there. When I checked out, the manager short-changed me $1 until I pointed it out. I had to check out one day early because of re-scheduled flight. Manager didn’t even offer to call me a taxi. To hotel owners: find a better manager!

The Bosses were racist and colonial

Thank you to all the kind and generous staff at the Hotel, front desk, gym, security and house keeping. However, I conspicuously noticed the power hierarchy between the staff and management. The arrogant bosses pausing and watching the Afrikan black staff in a very intimidating manner. Waiters were so nervous that one waiter dropped a tray because of the intimidating precence of the boss! Please treat your employees with kindness. You are a guest in their country and you are both benefiting from one another! As much as the Hotel was clean and central, due to the way the bosses were treating their employees, which was so painful to watch, I will never go back or reccommend to anyone who agrees that colonialism does not have a place anywhere in the world! The breakfast was good with a variety of fruits, pastries and other dishes to choose from. At a practical level it was ok, however it's the colonialism that I am calling out! I tried to strike a conversation with the unfriendly boss but he just ignored! Very arrogant with colonialism written all over his unfriendly face

Le meilleur rapport-qualité-prix de Ouagadougou

De mon point de vue et après avoir séjourné dans plusieurs autres hôtels à Ouagadougou, l'hôtel Sonia est le meilleur de la ville tant par son emplacement que par la qualité de son service, le confort des chambres et l'offre de sa restauration. Un bravo sincères est à porter à l'attention du personnel Indien de son restaurant.
