“Grand Hotel Akwa places guests in the heart of Douala, with ready access to the city's conveniences. I noted the clean rooms and consistently helpful staff as a definite plus. While the lack of on-site breakfast and occasional Wi-Fi hiccups are drawbacks, the overall experience seems positive, especially given the availability of currency exchange.”
