My husband and I were visiting from the US. This was our first time in Lagos. Because we were only there for one night, the apartment was fine. It was quite tiny! There is also a lot of noise from outside that you can hear through the night because it’s a popular area. Besides those two things, it was a perfect place for an overnight stay. Close to the beach, restaurants and shops. It was very clean and the fan provided plenty of cool air. Kudos to the staff at DreamAlgarve, they were very helpful!

Excellent location (pubs, shops, restaurant, museums), facilities (I washed and dried all of my holiday clothes the night before I went home), local transportation. Only downside is that there's a karaoke bar at a weekend 5 doors away until 2am :(

DO NOT RECOMMEND There was a terrible smell, stains on the bed blankets, and hairs found in the bathroom. We immediately left, returned to the main office, registered our complaint, and returned the key. We tried to get a refund from the rental company and through Expedia, but the management company never replied to Expedia after multiple attempts of calling and emailing. Incredibly disappointed in the customer service. They just ignored us. We had to book another spot last minute, at a significant cost to us.

Très difficile communication avec la réception de l'hébergement, situé à 15 min à pied de celui-ci, pour un problème de clé qui n'ouvrait pas mon logement. Il fallait systématiquement que je fasse appel au serveur du bar d'à côté pour ouvrir la porte (que j'ai dérangé à chaque fois sur son temps de travail malgré les remarques de sa patronne) impossible à ouvrir sans avoir énormément de force. La réception étant totalement injoignable par téléphone, pourtant sur les heures indiquées d'ouverture de la réception, je me suis rendue sur place le premier jour pour signaler le problème en demandant à la réceptionniste de faire passer quelqu'un dans la journée pour mettre de l'huile ou réparer la serrure. Le soir-même, zéro évolution, pas d'amélioration, et bien sur, réception fermée...personne n'était passé. Le lendemain soir, lorsque l'appartement ne s'ouvrait toujours pas, il a fallu que j'aille littéralement pleurer à la réception pour qu'ils daignent m'envoyer quelqu'un. Et le problème a été réglé après tout de même 1h30 d'attente. Bref, ça m'a pourri 2 jours de voyage. Je recommande donc cet hébergement uniquement pour les gens qui ont beaucoup de force dans le poignet. Sinon, bon courage à vous, vous ne réussirez à joindre personne et les gens qui sont en face de vous ne vous prennent pas au sérieux.

Das einzige positive war, dass es eine Waschmaschine und Trockner gab, die Wohnung stinkt Modrig, sichtbare Schimmelflecke an den Wänden so wie im Badezimmer. Lüften nicht möglich, da es nur ein Fenster gibt. Das Bett ist stark durchgelegen und man spürt jede einzelne Feder. Die Schreckliste Erfahrung seit Jahren

A notre arrivée l'appartement ne ressemblait pas aux photos sur l'annonce, dommage. Le gros point est l'emplacement vis à vis de la ville de Lagos, mais attention aux côtes à monter pour accéder à un parking gratuit. Le personnel de l'agence est très agréable et s'adapte à notre langue. Pas de wifi durant l'ensemble de notre séjour malgré un message envoyé resté sans réponse. L'état de propreté était très médiocre à notre entrée dans le logement (poils d'animaux, odeurs des draps/oreillers/matelas, vaisselle sale et mauvaise odeur dans l'appartement) Il a été nécessaire d'acheter produit vaisselle et éponge ce qui peut expliquer l'état de la vaisselle... L'isolation, la fermeture des fenêtres et portes sont précaires et laissent passer le froid et le bruit ... Heureusement cela ne nous a pas empêché de passer un excellent séjour dans une région sublime. 😉
