"It is not where it says on the map. I turned up expecting to be in actual Banjul but I was somewhere miles away. They didn't have any rooms even though I was booked in. Took me to another place that was nicer but again, not in the location it said. "

"Save yourself the trouble—this property lacks professionalism, comfort, and basic upkeep.
The location was another letdown. While advertised as convenient, being directly opposite Keir Srynge Market meant struggling to locate the property every time I went out and tried to return.The area felt unsafe after dark, with limited lighting and no clear pedestrian pathways.
I would never recommend Sweet Mama Residence to anyone. "

"Needs a tidy up with some unfinished parts to the apartment. Nice location and friendly people. Location is not as close to the Senegambia strip as shown but is about 10 mins car journey away. "

"This is a true gem. The owners were wonderful. They called to check on me and even surprised me with dinner a couple nights (which was amazing). The bed was comfortable, the air conditioner worked well. I will surely stay there again. The WiFi signal was the best I have ever experienced in The Gambia. I highly recommend it. They told me they are opening a restaurant in December which will be great. "

"Cleaning crew was pleasant. Grounds keepers kept the property nice. The Food was Great. The placement of the Hotel on the Strip was Perfect. The Pool was Lovely. Seen some Monkey's. And Different plants Flowers Insects. Love nature. The Beach was Beach was Beautiful. Check out the Pictures."
"Everything is in house meaning if you are looking to walk to a local store, this is probably not the place for you. It has a restaurant, pool,gym and beach all inside the compound but no local stores insight."
"The staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was healthy with all of the food that I was used to. Cleaners came to my room every morning to ask about cleaning my room and to help with washing my dirty clothes for a few pounds.
The beach is about five minutes walk from the property and the beach is very clean. The resort pool is very clean and well spaced out, with children pool on one side and the adults on the other side separated by a bridge that leads to the bar. The way the huts are laid out was great it allows for privacy with two bamboo chairs and a table in front of the hut, incase you want to watch the sun go down. Great place, I loved it."
"I was very pleased with my stay at the Tropic Garden Hotel. Upon arriving, I noticed a few bugs in my room. When I brought the issue to the staff's attention, they responded immediately and moved me to another room without hesitation. I greatly appreciated their promptness and commitment to guest satisfaction.
Throughout my stay, the staff was consistently friendly, professional, and helpful. They were always willing to assist with any questions or requests, which made my experience even more enjoyable.
The complimentary daily breakfast was a nice addition, and the views from the hotel were absolutely spectacular. The beautiful surroundings created a relaxing atmosphere and added to the overall experience.
Overall, I had a very positive stay at the Tropic Garden Hotel and would recommend it to travelers looking for friendly service, beautiful views, and a welcoming environment."
"Amazing Staff from The Front Desk to the Housekeeping Team and every Hotel Employee i had met they were so friendly and made sure I had a very relaxing vacation. The Pool area was so clean, and the hotel room bed was very comfortable.
The Manager is present and very approachable. Thankyou to everyone for the lovely vacation stay."
