8.6/10 Excellent! (74 reviews)
We arrived to the hotel at 10:00am hoping for early check in, the receptionist said is not possible that early, that wasn’t a problem, he told us we can do the whole procedure for the check in and then when we come back at we just get the keys. When we came back at 3:10pm nothing was ready; they couldn’t find the paper work that we already did or even the room was ready.

Popular places to visit

Sandanga lies roughly midway on Plateau center in Dakar and is the biggest of Dakar`s markets. If you are not familiar with African markets is worth a visit, but be careful with your valuables and do not be fooled to follow strangers. Sandanga is a mix of flea market and tourist market. It is fussy and chaotic and sellers are ongoing. Try to visit Sandanga early in the morning. It is less crowded at that time of day and fruits and vegetables are fresh and look attractive.
