    There should be more improvements in the rooms and both the toilet and bathroom also needs improvements because the last time I went there, the water was not working

    The staff are exceptional and the place too fit the money that they're taking.

    Not exactly clean, basic facilities, other hotel guests seemed to smoke substances different from regular tobacco.

    Location near the beach and tourist sites, low room rate, helpful staff. Note: Review submitted on behalf of friend for whom the booking was made and who stayed at the lodge.

    The staff looked uniterested, and simple questions like " can i have tea" could pose a challenge. The price charged is far too high for the accomodation.

    The construction is nice, with a view over the ocean...but theres been little mantanaince.

    We booked rooms with shared bathroom and the problem was not having a water and we needed to ask staff to bring bucket of it for showing or using washroom every time.

    Rooms are great, we're satisfied with equipment and comfort of the beds. Also, it was nice waking up and falling asleep with the sound of an ocean.

    It is not easy for drivers to find, it is down a muddy uneven road which a few drivers didn't understand how to get to it. The was hardly any food actually available for lunch in the restaurant on Friday lunch time. Most rooms have a shared bathroom with two toilets and 2 bucket showers, but they were pretty clean. The water was shut off during a rain storm which I guess happens a lot in rainy season. It could do with some refurbishment.

    It's right by the sea, you can hear the waves and enjoy the view of the ocean. There is a bar. It's very cheap. The staff are friendly and kind.

    the worst room we had in Ghana. it was dirty, broken, there still was garbage from the visitors before us in the room, no blanket, the oldest mattress I have ever seen. seems like they didn’t put any effort in the place which is sad, because it could be a cool place. oh…and don’t disturb the people working there 🤷‍♀️

    The place is totally messed up. People smoking Indian hemp in the open, very dirty bathrooms and room. The environment is so untidy and dirty. I do not recommend this place at all.

    There is nothing to like about in this place. It was so dirty and so uncomfortable

    Environment is super friendly; Facilities are okay for the price, place is also secure: forgot to lock my room with my pc when I went out. I love the coastal line, helped me sleep well (before coming here I have had insomnia for weeks) but they could deal with plastic pollution on their front

    There is no running water at the facility. You have to ask the staff for water and they take time to fetch the bathing water. The toilet would be messed up and at times with 💩. It just needs a proper house manager who has a high command. One other thing is that if they notice you're foreigner they try so hard to extort the pricing. They said the rate for the dollar cedi was 16.5 which isn't even there in the black market. I then requested to pay using my dollars to the person I was booking from. It also seems like a Marijuana smoking hub. The day I tried to sit by the bar it was all Marijuana the bedding and mattress are so dirty I thought i would go home with bed lice. A lor needs to be done at the place.

    The only thing that made me stay was the ocean view
