I liked the French doors and the way property looked. I enjoyed the friendliness of the staff and how they took time to take us to and from various places.
The water was a little cold at times. The washing machine was broken. We washed our clothes by hand.

Property is in good location to airport and some attractions but the location is wrong on Google Maps as it shows it on the opposite side of the street. The ousting is very small and the door on room 8 is a little worked. Room was clean, garden was nice & breakfast was okay.

Excellent option outside big hotel chains
This lovely villa in ‘60s style was repurposed for accommodation and houses good rooms in the centre of Cotonou. You get really good value for money, good breakfast with fresh fruit and one of the kindest service I have ever seen. The garden is lovely for breakfast.
The only downside was a bird (or so I think) trapped under the roof and making some noise the first night. It was dealt with by staff by the following night. I will gladly return to this place on my next trip.
