Ask for a room on the 4th floor. They are much cleaner and modern. Overall it was a good hotel. They could do some improvement with basic customer training on the front desk.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Easily to say its the worst property i have ever stayed in. Checked into a room smelling with overused sheets and mold. Complained to the front desk and they laughed over it saying the room is clean. Tv remote doesnt work. AC remote doesn't work. No water pressure in bathroom. Checked out on the 2nd day and they refused to refund the remaining 5 nights. I have never met such a dishonest establishment where they have terrible facilities and still try to hold you hostage.

Solid budget option in Douala
DK Hotel is located in Bonabéri, just outside of Douala. It is a good option for those who wish to stay outside of the main city and maybe beat early morning traffic to hit the highways leading north and west out of the city. Accommodation in Douala is not cheap, but DK fills the mid-price range quite well. This is a basic hotel that has everything that a budget traveler needs for a night or two: comfortable bed, great wifi, and hot water in the shower. I would return in a heartbeat.

Decent hotel for international traveller
The booking with hotel.com was very easy and DK hotel found my reservation upon arrival. The check in was fast and manager on duty assisted with taking my luggages to the room. The room was clean and decent. The A/C worked very well. Although the TV had no video, it was immediately replaced. Although the hotel is located on a busy street, security was adequate as every guest was screened and visitors had to deposit their ID's with the front desk. Overall, I found DK hotel a very good bargain and worth the price for customer service, cleanliness and convenience to shops and public transport.

They couldn't verify my online reservation, had to deposit 25000 FCFA until reservation was verified. Couldn't connect to the wifi. Took a day to send someone to come look at it and it never worked after that. Always some activities going on around the pool espacially on weekends; crowded with young teenagers having some kind of a party.

Excellent staffs/service
Excellent service and staffs are always there and ready to serve. Management should consider carrying out some maintenance/repairs. Moreover, there shouldn’t be asking clients who have made reservations via Hotels.com to pay additional 3000CFA as tax.
