Nice hotel in Haie Vive neighborhood with nice property grounds. It's on a quiet street but only one block from a major street within easy walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops. Friendly and helpful staff. Decent breakfast.

Très bel endroit calme, spacieux et lumineux. La chambre et la salle de bain était de bonne taille. Le service excellent était excellent et le petit déjeuner relativement copieux. Le WIFI pourrait être meilleur, quoi que fonctionnel la plupart du temps. Située à distance de marche de la place de l'Amazone, on retrouve aussi quelques restaurants dans le secteur. La villa n'a pas de service de restauration, mais peut fait livrer les plats classiques. Je recommande!

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.
