I stupidly left my glasses in the hotel room whilst scrambling to get an early flight. Reception were wonderful and sent my glasses back to me via recorded delivery with no extra charge.

Other than that the accommodation is basic, but clean. If you're not too fussy and are looking for a good value place to stay - this is it!

The hotel is in a good location for Maia Praia beach and not too far from Lagos which are both good. I booked this hotel for a really cheap price (I think around £35 a night), but it really wasn;t even worth that. The "kitchens" were very poorly stocked, missing various esentials like a kettle, and bottle opener, the hobs didnt work properly and the pans over-heated and bent when you tried to use them. There was no air con, and the rooms' sea views were only visable if you tried to push your head a metre over the balcony to look over the side! The bed mattresses are very thin and more like camping mattresses.


If you're after cheap then ideal, if you want any level of comfort then dont bother. The place was drastically understaffed and the few staff I did see were stressed and made you feel like you were adding to thier stress, they were not friendly. There is no internet, no parking space and no information in the rooms about local amenities.

No confort....
Very bad fridge...
Very noisy...
Old....
Poor assistance....
Bad "ambiance"...

We stayed here for 8 nights in August 2010 after Alpharooms double booked our original apartments(Vilabranca)
I travelled with my husband and 6 year old son. We arrived in Lagos late and it took us 40 mins to locate the apartments after several calls to the reception who had very bad english.
Upon arrival we were shown to a one bedroom apartment, there was a terrible musty smell in the room.
We were so tired we dumped our bags and went to sleep. Well we thought we were going to sleep, we were located to the front of the apartments, here runs a very busy road and a train track, I think I counted 4 trains that ran throughout the night each time waking you up! So needless to say we didnt sleep!
The next morning I went down to reception n asked to be moved I was just told "we are fully booked" and walked away. I found the reception very rude.

The apartment was actually a good size, kitchen, sitting room, bathroom and bedroom with two single beds. There was a pull out sofa bed in the sitting room.
The pool was small enough but adequate, inside reception you could buy ice creams n drinks, quite expensive €2.20 for a magnum and they were €1.50 in all other shops.
We ate in the restaurant one night, Atlantico,this was nice but was expensive €84 for 3 of us, our son got a steak and we were charged €14, we ate in other restaurants in the town and price was €4.50
The location of the apartments are 1.5km from the Marina but note there is part of the road with no foothpath and its poorly lite at night. Many people walked in or got a bus and taxi back
Plus side beach was across the road!
Would I return or recommend? No, needs a complete re-vamp.
