    The structure of the building and room.

    The location is confusing. The address on booking.com is not the same with the main location. It took us time before we could locate it and we pay more for the cab.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your positive rating and kind words about our building and rooms. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay. Regarding the location, we sincerely apologize for the confusion you experienced. Our location is accurately listed on Google Maps, but we understand that navigation apps can sometimes mislead depending on the phone’s GPS calibration or the driver's familiarity with the area. We'll also double-check our address on Booking.com to ensure it’s properly aligned. We truly appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you again soon.

    The property was clean, which was a definite highlight of my stay. The attention to cleanliness made for a comfortable and hygienic environment.

    While the property was clean, my overall experience was unfortunately far below expectations due to numerous issues that need urgent attention. The customer service and communication were lacking. When I reported that the shower on the third floor had no water pressure, the staff advised me to boil water in a kettle and bathe using a bucket, I thought that was unreasonable for a paid accommodation. Equally frustrating was the discovery of a policy prohibiting outside food deliveries (such as pizza), which was only mentioned on a sign at the gate and not disclosed on the booking site. Transparency about such restrictions is essential for guests to make informed decisions. The facilities were unreliable and inconvenient. The electricity kept turning on and off, and the internet connection was so unstable that I couldn’t work. Additionally, there was no elevator, making it difficult to access the third floor with luggage. The in-house taxis provided were old, uncomfortable, and lacked air conditioning, which was disappointing for transportation needs. The complimentary breakfast was extremely poor, forcing me to eat elsewhere. The location was also problematic, tucked away in an inconvenient part of Lugbe, the property was hard to locate by the airport taxi. For this property to meet basic hospitality standards, improvements must be made in several key areas: stable utilities (electricity, water pressure, and Wi-Fi), better guest communication (clear policies upfront), and upgrades to amenities (transport, breakfast quality, and ideally an elevator). With these changes, the stay could be much more comfortable for future guests.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your feedback and for acknowledging the cleanliness of our property — we’re glad that aspect of your stay met your expectations. We do, however, wish to address several points raised in your review. Our team made every effort to ensure your stay was comfortable, including offering prompt assistance and clear communication throughout. The payment dispute you mentioned stemmed from a minor currency conversion difference based on the official rate at the time, and we were transparent in our calculation. On utilities, we understand how frustrating network and water supply issues can be. Unfortunately, internet stability is an ongoing infrastructure challenge across many parts of Nigeria. That said, we currently use one of the country’s most reliable providers, and we remain committed to optimizing service as much as possible. Water pressure on the upper floor may vary during peak usage, but our staff always offer practical support when needed. We’d also like to clarify that we do allow food deliveries, including pizza, and many of our guests enjoy this convenience regularly. However, as we operate a restaurant in-house, meals that are also available on our menu are not permitted to be brought in from outside — a standard policy in many hotels. This is clearly stated on-site and also at the frontdesk, which is clearly visible upon check-in, and we are working to make it more visible in online listings for better clarity. Our in-house transport is a well-maintained vehicle with air conditioning, suitable for short trips and airport runs. We understand that personal preferences differ, but the vehicle is neither old nor substandard. Regarding breakfast, we serve a complimentary offering that is modest but fresh, and we’re always looking at ways to enhance variety where possible. Lastly, while we currently do not have an elevator, our staff are always available to assist guests with luggage or special needs. We take every review seriously, and while it’s unfortunate that your expectations weren’t fully met, we hope future guests will also consider the many positive experiences reflected across our reviews. Warm regards.

    But the service is poor. There is no common drinking water for customers. Must we buy water in the hotel which was also costly.and food and water are not allowed into the hotel

    Property response:

    Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to know you found our hotel clean and our staff satisfactory. We regret that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. Please note that all our rooms come with a complimentary bottle of water, along with breakfast and beverages at no extra cost. Additional bottled water is available at our bar, where we maintain very reasonable pricing. As is standard practice in many hotels, we kindly restrict outside food and drinks, especially items we already offer in-house. This helps us maintain hygiene standards and support the facilities we provide, such as our bar. That said, we do exercise discretion and allow certain exceptions when appropriate. We appreciate your comments and will continue working to improve our services. We hope to welcome you again soon. Warm regards.

    It was somewhat close to the airport and the air conditioning worked. Cheap.

    The water stopped working several times during our eight-hour stay. When there was water, it never got hot, despite turning on the water heater 30 minutes before showering. Stained sheets. Moldy shower. Fire alarm that would beep for about 15 minutes every time the power went out — and it went out a lot. Apathetic staff. Rock hard bed and pillows. Quite possibly the worst hotel we have experienced in over 140 countries.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your feedback. We regret that your stay did not meet your expectations and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Our complimentary breakfast is provided for one guest per room, as clearly stated at check-in. We apologize for any misunderstanding regarding this policy. We strive to maintain a reliable water supply, and any issues with hot water are typically resolved promptly. Additionally, all rooms are equipped with functional kettles as an alternative. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Regarding cleanliness, our housekeeping team works diligently to uphold high standards. However, we take your comments seriously and will investigate the concerns raised about stained sheets and the shower. Power outages, while sometimes unavoidable in Nigeria, are managed with our backup generators, which typically activate within one to two minutes. We are also working to resolve the fire alarm beeping issue during outages to minimize any disturbances. We value all guest feedback and are continuously working to enhance our services. While we regret that our staff did not meet your expectations, we remain committed to providing a welcoming and professional environment. We appreciate your stay and hope to have the opportunity to offer you an improved experience in the future.
