Classic, quiet, well-located hotel close to beaches and good restaurants near Almadies. Helpful, friendly staff. Peaceful garden. Some have mentioned the dirt roads, but that is typical of Dakar; the Ghana embassy residence is across the street, so it’s certainly an ok neighbourhood.

What "stood out" about La Residence is "all of the above" - clean room, charming and helpful staff (front desk, guard, kitchen, and cleaning), amenities that provide ample space to work and/or relax indoors and outside. I have been there many times and will be back!
