    Bed bugs and bad service, but otherwise good.

    Bed bugs and the response. Half way into my stay I began having bites which turned into hives. It was unquestionably bed bugs after I found a bead bed bug on a sheet. I requested a partial refund or some form of compensation but was denied. Completely. The only response was to move me to another property they owned across the city, which they offered to pay the uber - it arrived almost an hour late, forcing me to miss important meetings. The service I received over WhatsApp was abhorrent. They completely ignored any further requests for some form of compensation or help and I had itchy bites for a week. I was forced to raise complaints with Booking.com which was however a good experience and was lucky to receive a small amount of credit. All that being said, if this issue hadn’t happened, I would have enjoyed every part of my stay.

    The room was pleasant and had a nice view over part of the harbour. The surrounding area was nice, though a bit more expensive than other places. The bathroom was decent, though perhaps a bit cramped. It was decent all up, and I enjoyed it.

    we had two rooms. one had no windows and no aircon. We shared a bathroom with two other rooms, so 9 guests in total. No separate toilet. Also the location that is displayed on the search results map is not the location you stay at. it is was on the train station side.

    My location was changed after I asked them to send me the address. Weird communication about WhatsApp and it took some circumstances before I got in.

    The location was great so I was only 10 meters away from the city. Room was fair enough to stay in. Cleanliness depends on your other mates.

    it was not the accommodation we ordered, which was not such a trouble for us as we were open to anything but in general its not ok. we got the info about different place of our stay last minute and it felt very strange, communication was brief and minimalistic. finally all was ok, the new place (not in the centre of the city as we wanted) was ok and the appartment manager even sent us a taxi from the city to this place.

    nice location by the beach. room is clean, all is fine, but not a nice smell in the room, was a bit mustily. the lady (probably) living there seemed nice, just met her for few seconds while leaving

    The complicated check in and the lack of information about how hidden the place was and the amount of set of stairs you have to endure before accessing the room. The pressure to leave the room before check out time was not welcome as well.

    The room was good and spacious but our experience was not good unfortunately. First was a big misters to get the address to the place, the lady who takes care of the rentals asked to communicate through whatsup and was a back and forth of messages until she sent a Apple Maps location that we could not open. My husband finally got a reference place close by that we used to get there. Upon arriving I had to call to get more instructions. The parking was on the street, what was fine, but from there I had to be on the phone so the lady guided us until the building across the street from parking and thought a lot of stair until we got to where the room was. I asked to bring the car close by just to unload our heavy luggage’s and was not permitted … at the end my husband was very frustrated as we were tired from driving all day long and there were no mention at all of the amount of stairs you need to go thought to get to the room witch was kind of in a secret hidden place on a “hotel”. No complains about the room, was big and with a huge balcony, but you could hear the neighbours, and there were loud talking until very late at night that kept us awake for long time. The check out was easy, we just left the keys in the key lock, but more than 1 hr before check out time we were already receiving pressing texts to leave the room. Overall, I think the check in and check out made the experience not a pleasant one.

    Nice bed and clean bathroom. Room in a house where the owners are also living, but prefer no contact

    The arrival was somewhat weird by picking up a key outside, whereas the owners where home. They could have simply introduced themselves, showed me around and have a little chat. I had expected something different from a 'homestay'. I felt like I was intruding in someone's house. Over chat, the owners sent rather directive rules. Additionally, I thought we could share facilities in the house, but instead I was "locked away" in a room upstairs. All in all, I didn't feel welcome.

    Nice bed, matras and pillow! and clean bathroom.

    Bathroom is shared and it is necessary to put a paper under the door of the room nearby with whom the bathroom is shared. Bathroom could be cleaner but it is likely due to the fact that it is a shared bathroom. I would suggest replacing the pillows. Overall it is very good value for money.

    Spaceous room. Cheap accommodation. Very organised host.

    Not what we expected, but cheap.

    You are staying in a family's house, they live on the first floor, the house is in a neignorhood, and you get a private room but have a shared bathroom - none of that is clear from pictures or description. The shared bathroom had pink and black mold in a large area of the shower tiles. Our balcony was not private, it went across to a common area and our sliding door did not lock. There is NO A/C, you can get access to a shared fan, but since our sliding door open to a shared balcony and did not lock we kept it closed at night and the air inside our room was hot and muggy all night. The "view" of their back yard looked at a shredded plastic tarp. The size of the room or space is no where near what is listed, unless maybe you include the shared balcony and shared bathroom. We just weren't expecting to stay in a home with a family or to share a bathroom.

    For the price, this is a good option for those trying to save money. It was quiet there and the room was clean. The host is very reaponsive to text.

    It presents itself in a deceptive way: in the description there is not a single photo of what we have seen of the house and the bathroom is not clear is shared. Mold in the bathroom and bedroom: the environment is not healthy. The terrace has only a small table and the lack of a drying rack forces you to dry in the room (consequently mouldy). But the really serious thing is that the host was not very available live and that we only saw her to understand if she was the one who, entering the house, ignored us after my fiancée had fallen off her bike in front of her who then immediately closed the door without asking us if we needed help. I will never tolerate such a thing, the host can be ashamed.

    The house would be very nice if better maintained, located in a quiet neighborhood, the bed is comfortable and the location is near a big supermarket.

    location, way further than the booking pin described and steep by foot and luggage. its a residents house and it feels weird to me to live with people you never actually met. instructions and the load of whatsapp messages for checkin, its also not clear. and why to put your personal key back when you are in the house still doesnt make sense to me.

    First of all there was not an address to go to, there was a direction which ended in an empty ground. Then I started to look around and no one knew where centrale rooms Lagos it was. When I could chat with some one the lady tried to put me to another room different place then I had booked, very very difficult to find, not even a glass in the room or anything else. Not clean. Then the landlord came there with someone else and he was very kind and arranged for me to go to the place I had reserved. Again another taxi. It cost me about €25 with 4 taxis I arrived in Lagos at 12:30 and I was in the place I had reserved at 20:30. Far from Center, it was cold, no heating, the pillows, the bed and blankets smelled little mouldy. The lady even called me and was angry because the landlord changed me to there. It was the worth experience I ever had!!!

    I can't say anything about acommodation, because we didn't get there!!! The worst experience ever! Wrong location, no communication, we ended up booking something else and asking our money back, which we, of course, didn't get! No further communication. We wanted to save some money for choosing something cheaper for once, but never again. Obviously we're not first ones neither last ones. Please, read reviews before doing such a mistake! I hope they get closed and in trouble, there shouldn't be something like this presented on Booking!

    The room was leaky, so cold wind was coming inside the room. We owner didn’t pick up when we called and keep writing that we should text instead, but didn’t answer our messages. We couldn’t get another room at the accommodation or get our money back, it was so uncomfortable to be at the accommodation. We ended up booking an another accommodation in the town, without getting any money back, but we had to book something else and the owner didn’t answer our messages and still haven’t a week later. Booking has also tried to contact this place regarding the situation, but they haven’t answered them either.

    We had a really bad experience at this accommodation.
