I'm doing the same trip next month and found this really helpful.

Can the location of the stop change from Accra to Dakar or vice versa, or is the stop location fixed per the schedule for that particular date? My flights have Accra stops, which i prefer for sleeping.

It's a few years old but describes the experience. . .
Great report and very relevant for me since I am going to Cape Town and Johannesburg and staying at the same hotels you did.
