    Overall well-run and lovely hotel, tasty meals.

    Spotlessly clean venue with exceptionally nice location in the middle of the city. The staff - excellent and amiable. Location just next door to a very quiet, safe residential area amongst international NGO offices, restaurants and large supermarket...

    The whole team was absolutely mind-blowing! They were super friendly and accommodating, making my stay even better than I could have imagined. The guest house had a wonderful local feel with all the perks of a hotel. The facilities were super clean and the breakfast was just jaw-dropping. The pool was great and the terrace spaces were fantastic for relaxing. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, and the two dogs were the cherry on top. I highly recommend this place!

    Located in a peaceful residential area, Francesca Guest House offers a tranquil retreat for travelers.

The rooms are cozy and comfortable, and the housekeeping staff ensures that they are kept clean throughout your stay.

    Lovely garden, enjoyed the terrace and the Italian breakfast. The swimming pool is great, although I didn't swim because I forgot my swimsuit. The staff were so helpful that I felt like a VIP.

    Mosquitoes, but hey, who needs sleep anyway?

    The rooms at Francesca Guest House are cozy and comfortable, making us feel right at home. The air conditioning was a lifesaver in the hot Dakar weather. Having a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge made it convenient to prepare our own meals. We even had a private entrance in our double room, which gave us the feeling of privacy.

    Personally, I found the tile/marble floor in our room a bit cold. But hey, some people might enjoy that!

    The service was great and the owners were very nice! The backyard restaurant was comfortable and the food was delicious! The rooms where really comfortable, the facilities excellent and the location was very good for us.

    I didn't like my first room. The view was horrible and the bathroom was complicated.
