Stayed
and
dined
at
Boma
during
my
stay
in
Senegal.
Hotel
Boma
isn’t
located
downtown
but
more
in
local
area
filled
with
shops
and
the
hustle
and
bustle
of
local
living.
It
is
a
tad
bit
far
(~20
min
taxi
with
light
traffic)
from
the
downtown
and
main
tourist
attractions.
But
overall
my
stay
was
very
pleasant.
The
pool
area
is
beautiful
and
so
incredibly
peaceful.
The
restaurant
on
site
has
some
really
good
Senegalese
staples
and
some
international
cuisine
as
well.
I
must
say
the
staff
at
Boma
were
so
incredibly
kind
and
accommodating.
They
made
sure
my
stay
was
a
pleasant
one.
I
rate
this
hotel
3
stars
though
because
my
hotel
arranged
airport
shuttle
never
showed
twice.
I
landed
in
Dakar
at
2
am
and
since
I
was
arriving
in
the
middle
of
the
night
I
wanted
a
dependable/trustworthy
transport.
But
the
Boma
Hotel
shuttle
never
arrived
and
I
had
to
find
a
taxi
at
2am.
Then
when
leaving
Dakar
I
arranged
a
hotel
shuttle
from
the
hotel
to
the
airport
and
yet
again
the
shuttle
never
showed.
I
almost
missed
by
flight
because
the
front
desk
attendee
kept
promising
that
the
driver
would
show
and
an
hour
later
he
never
did.
I
yet
again
had
to
take
a
taxi.
The
hotel
manager
was
there
overhearing
my
frustrations
and
yet
did
not
a
single
thing
to
make
it
right.
That
was
deeply
disappointing.
With
the
airport
transfers
never
showing
for
both
rides
it
left
a
poor
taste
in
my
mouth
for
Hotel
Boma.
