Bel Hôtel très bien situé et très bon service

Très bon séjour de 3 nuits a AZAILA NOUAKCHOTT, établissement que je recommande sans hésiter. Il s'agit pour ceux qui l'ont connu de l'ancien hôtel MERCURE et qui a été très bien rénové depuis. Proche du palais présidentiel. Le cadre de l'établissement est très agréable, avec une très belle piscine au milieu. Wifi gratuit et rapide partout dans l'hôtel. Personnel très aimable, prévenant et avenant, à l'entrée, à la réception, au service de lingerie, en salle de restaurant. Spéciale dédicace à la Responsable Client Mme B. qui a rendu notre séjour encore plus agréable. En revanche accueil un peu rude au bar un midi pour commander de simples thés. Chambres Standard confortables mais qui donnent sur rue donc un peu bruyantes quand la fenêtre est ouverte. Excellente literie ! Salle de bain un peu petite, il manque des portes serviettes et une paroi pour la douche pour éviter d'inonder la salle de bain. Très bon rapport qualité prix dans l'ensemble.

Hotel staff has given a different room not the same room as shown at the time of booking. When we asked him to change they asked us to pay more for the room. Another issue is, they have not given room tariff bill for the booking.

Disappointing stay

I found new cockroaches every day in my room. The service cleaning the room was very lackluster. Some days I didn’t receive new towels until the evening (but they took the dirty towels in the morning). Tissues and toilet paper weren’t replaced / replenished until 2 days later sometimes.

À éviter.

Chambre abimée et pas hyper propre (il ne faut pas mettre un tapis s'il n'est jamais nettoyé comme il faut). Mauvaise odeur dans la douche, vitre très sale, pas d'attention aux détails. Stock épuisé de pratiquement tous pendant notre séjour (pratiquement pas de boissons, même pas des infusions), pareil pour les sandwiches, les desserts etc. Pas de carte, seulement des suggestions du Chef, avec deux plats. Pendant trois jours on me dit qu'on m'emmènera un fer à repasser, pour finalement avouer qu'il n'y en a pas. On m'a dit que c'était impossible d'aller au marché à 200 m pour acheter des citrons... Un séjour un peu surréaliste et très décevant pour un hôtel se disant 4 étoiles avec des tarifs correspondants. Un retour n'est pas prévu.
