8/10 Very Good! (39 reviews)
Quite a nice place for the price. Big room with a balcony, good restaurant, minutes from the beach. Different types of outlets in the room so you don’t need a converter. Male staff members trying to chat you up are very annoying, so maybe not the most ideal for solo female travelers.

I’ve been to Gambia many times, working with and for a non profit organization helping The Gambia people. Bakau is not different than other areas of the country where locals live, if you are on vacation you want to stay in a different area and hotel
