I have to say that this is basic accomodation and the food is not for me, but it is clean and safe and Terry the manager is extremely helpful and trust worthy. The beach is just a few metres away and the local restaurants are less then 5 minutes away. It was a cheap and diffrent holiday, i enjoyed it... More

I stayed here a couple of times over the years, but most recently in November 2012. The area is really lively and interesting, so the peaceful tranquillity of this lovely little hotel is an absolute find. Most of the guests that I spoke to were returning customers, which I always find reassuring. The place has apparently been under new management... More

The hotel was clean but is a knocking shop full of old men & young prostitutes - a steady stream of them. One group of men even brought their 14 year old son along for the action! There were a few females too with their local 'boyfirends' but generally it was old men with young prostutes, procured for approximately £1.... More

This was my second visit to this Hotel and I still stand by my original 2012 review. This Hotel is ideally situated being close to the “strip” and a quick exit out the back gate neatly takes through either the Kairaba or Senegambia Hotels to the beach. Sarges has a basic problem with hot water because it uses electric boilers... More

Just back from a 10 night stay at Sarges. I was a bit worried by all the negative postings i read on here, but because of the cheap price, and that it was only going to be a base for me to explore, i took the chance, and can say i am glad i did. Staff were all polite, the... More

The hotel is great location wise, just a short walk to the beach through one of the two resorts that are connected through the rear exit, the pool is small but clean, saw someone cleaning it atleast once a day. Safe and airconditioning are available for a surplus. Safe was indeed not fixed which is kinda odd, but there was... More

I had previously booked this hotel for a family of four and re-booked after reading such awful reviews. I know I didn't stay there but I did visit out of curiosity as it was near to my Hotel. I visited 2013 Jan. It is very basic, but the rooms are clean and well presented, with plasma screen and kettle. The... More
