Quiet place for a pleasant vacation at a good price

Small private apart hotel, neat in a good and quiet place, not far from the sea. The units are well equipped with all the basic amenities. Beds comfortable, quiet place which is ideal for sleeping. The terrace was fine, protected from the sun which is important to me as I spend most of my time outdoors escaping the European winter. Internet connection fine. Staff very helpful, will do everything to make you feel comfortable

I loved the peaceful, clean bedroom, the friendly animals, and the kind, helpful staff—my short stay

I loved the peaceful bedroom I was given. It was very neat and clean, and I appreciated being able to make myself a hot drink. I liked the friendly animals, and the staff were always kind and willing to help. I really enjoyed my short stay here.

It's practically like having your own flat with free laundry and cleaning service. Very friendly and helpful staff! The location is great as it is outside enough from the highway to be quiet and peaceful but only 15 minute walk to Senegambia or the beach.

This is a rare find

There is nothing negative to say about Busy Bees. The previous guests have said it all, and i had I experienced the same. As a elderly lady travelling on my own , I always felt safe at Busy Bees Great and helpful staff Knowledgeable owner who cares about the environment.and health Near beaches public transport and supermarket If you like your Sunday roast at a reasonable price, then Blaggers is less than 5 minutes, walk away

Great place in a quiet street, not far from the beach

Great place with many plants, some cats and a dog. The room is good and has a kitchen. The location is good, it's in a quiet street, but it's like 15 minutes by walk to the beach, a few minutes by walk to a supermarket and two exchange offices. You can also find good restaurants nearby. All people from the staff are really lovely. Claudette, the owner is so friendly and so helpful, she's a really good person. I totally recommend this place if you come to Gambia!

A great place to stay

Claudette and the team have made a tranquil oasis in the chaos that is Gambia. I stayed during the new road construction so the area outside was dusty and messy. But everytime I got home with all the plants and the smiles from the staff I instantly felt calm and at peace. I would advise anyone to stay here for a long or short stay in the Gambia.
