I stayed at the Ibis in Cotonou for a week. It was very clean - felt brand new, actually!, had great service at the front desk and in the restaurant, is very centrally located and was overall a great choice.
The hotel is very new, which makes it quite clean and well appointed. It's not a luxury hotel by any means but what it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in service and cleanliness. You can also use the pool at the Novotel just across the way, which is a beautiful pool and is a nice option on very hot days in Benin. They don't have a fitness center, though, so don't be mistaken! The breakfast buffet at the Ibis was excellent and they make a great fruit salad! Wifi was strong and regular.
I would definitely stay here again for my next business trip to Cotonou.
