    This is my 2nd time staying here. Its a really great place. The place just works; its beautiful, its in in the best part of Ikoyi for a peaceful secure stay. Its beautifully furnished and the staff are so attentive. No power issues. We just kept staring at the views of the water. Its so amazing. I will be coming back again.

    Nothing really

    We had a really pleasant experience. The view from the balcony is one of the highlights—calm, scenic, and perfect for relaxing, especially in the mornings. The apartment itself is clean, well-maintained, and comfortably furnished. It’s located within a secure gated estate, which adds an extra layer of safety and peace of mind. I felt comfortable moving around the compound even late in the evening. What really stood out was the staff. They were polite, responsive, and always willing to help with anything—from extra towels to restaurant recommendations. Their friendly service made the stay more enjoyable. Would definitely consider staying here again.

    Almost no positives. Even before arrival the hotel provided false information which forced us to look for another hotel at midnight but we had to pay for that night even though we didn't sleep in the hotel. The only positive is the location. If you solve problems, you will only hear excuses. Here in Europe I would go to the authorities. Nigeria does not work like that and you can no longer claim your rights.

    In a word, pain and suffering. Dishonest people who try to extort money from you for various deposits, charge you for a night you were not in the hotel and if you do not pay, they blackmail you by denying you access to the room to your belongings and travel documents. Rooms very dirty with cockroaches. Toilets not cleaned and the floor dirty. I strongly warn European citizens against this accommodation. Horror. I hope I can resolve this very negative experience at least with booking.com

    Property response:

    Dear Jaroslav We are very sorry to read about your negative experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Regarding your arrival, your booking was confirmed for check-in between 23:00 on May 2nd and 01:00 on May 3rd. You arrived in the early morning of May 3rd. The charge for the first night was for the reserved period as per your booking confirmation. We regret any misunderstanding regarding this. We can assure you that no false information was provided by us that would have necessitated seeking alternative accommodation. The payment requested upon your arrival consisted of the agreed-upon rate for your booked stay and a standard, fully refundable security deposit, which is outlined in our booking terms. This is not an attempt to extort money but a standard procedure. Access to the apartment and amenities is contingent upon the settlement of these agreed booking charges. We are particularly concerned about your comments on cleanliness and pests. We maintain rigorous cleaning standards and conduct regular pest control. We can assure future guests that we take hygiene very seriously. The conditions you described are not reflective of our property's standards. We strive to provide honest and transparent service to all our guests, and it is disheartening to hear you did not feel that way.

    location by the river was great and area was secure. You needed a code to access the estate on which the property is located and this code was changed every day so this was reassuring re security. The staff were also very professional, responsive and helpful

    The apartment had been cleaned just before I arrived but it wasn't actually deep cleaned in a 'maintenance' kind of way. There was mold in the bathroom (especially around the bottom edges). A wet mop stick was left hanging against the balcony railing and one couldn't sit out on the balcony without being subjected to the sight of the outdoor toilet where it seemed all the cleaning things were stored very messily. There were cockroaches in the kitchen and building defects or wear and tear that hadn't been fixed or updated. There were holes in the walls of the bathroom were fixtures seems to have been improperly measured and annexed fixtures such as the sink and soap holders were slanted so you could not leave anything on it without fear of your stuff dropping. The bottom of the water closet was sitting on what seemed like a block of cement/concrete that hadn't been covered up or blended in. You could tell from the colour of the throw pillows in the living room that the throw pillows had not been washed or changed in a long time. The curtains in all the bedrooms and living room looked like they hadn't been washed in a very long time. The bedsheets were un-ironed and the pillows underneath the pillowcase looked like they needed a good wash or changing. Utensil were difficult to find and had to be re-washed before use due to the cockroaches in the kitchen. The kitchen cupboard have big gaps so cockroaches could still get into where the plates and cups are. Overall, for the price paid, the quality was lacking and the property looked tired and in need of a refurbishment. The pictures seem to have come from a time when the property looked much newer than it currently is. Also more bathroom pictures are needed to give prospective residents a fairer idea of what to expect (especially the slanting fixtures and slab of concrete under the WC)

    The ambience and serene environment was amazing and exciting. The facility is topnotch and exceptional comfortable with state of the art features

    The fact that there are no very cozy, calm and close by shopping mall for the estate. You had to place an order that takes longer time to get delivered

    The serene environment and a very wonderful seaview. The host was so much helpful in supporting us to order for food even when it was diffculy for me to do that initially

    There is no closeby mall for any quick shopping in the estate and it was stressful for my family as we had to depend on a daily food order from the vendor, which was very inconvenient

    Very nice apartment. In a quiet and secluded estate. No issues with power. The views from the balcony and bed rooms were amazing. The WiFi was good. The place was clean and comfortable. Easy to get to the mainland or Island from here. Security here was excellent. Upscale furnishing.
