    The hotel had a favourable location a short way from Eko Market. Everything was good, yet a few employees were very rude. The room I booked was perfect and modern with regular housekeeping and the necessary comfort, for example.

    The room had extremely poor views.

    The rooms were spacious and comfortable with excellent amenities such as free Wi-Fi, making my business trip that much easier. The hotel's central location provides easy access to shops and eateries. Finally, the pool was a nice perk, offering a relaxing environment after a long day.

    The hotel was overpriced, and the breakfast was not up to par with the cost charged. the corridors had a strange smell and the old carpeting and dim lighting made for a less than ideal experience.

    Free airport shuttle was provided and staff were polite and accommodating. The location was central and convenient for exploring the city. A nice variety of food was offered.

    The hotel was in desperate need of renovation with overly dated rooms and uncomfortable beds. The bathrooms lacked basic amenities and the hot water was unreliable.
