Les photos ne correspondent pas a la réalité. De plus hôtel bruyant pas de réception disponible sur place. La chambre très mal entretenue et la piscine est toute petite et non utilisable car le elle se trouve au roof top ouvert au public pour bar de nuit.

Central location but the lift stops at mid level between floors so stairs up or down to your floor. Roof top bar very expensive and breakfast very basic.

Sub-par accommodations, great location
This "hotel" was not represented as a B&B by Hotels.com, which in fact, it is. It is most definitely NOT a full-service hotel. It is not well-cared for, and the check-in procedures and "guest services" is nearly non-existent. Very confusing and not communicated. Two things helped redeem this property--the location, and the roof-top bar. The location is excellent--right among a great pedestrian shopping and dining area, and a two-minute walk from the old town area of Lagos. Only 15-minute walk from the beautiful Lagos Marina area. The rooftop bar and pool have amazing views, and the bar staff is super friendly, providing excellent service and great drinks.

The location is unbeatable - right in the middle of the old town, lots of restaurants around, music in the town square most day with different bands, singers etc. 2 minute walk to the water and taxie stand. Since we have no car when there the no parking or direct access was no problem for us.

I was so comfortable at this place, I didn't feel like leaving. Nice and spacious suites with a good location. Breakfast daily was wonderful. The mattress is spring and it isn't the greatest. Nice bathtubs. Decor is dated overall. Would stay again. 6/10

Such a quaint place. Loved the Sky Bar! A bit hard to find at first, but when you do, you realize the location is great. We recommended it to some friends and they visited the bar when yhey were there & enjoyed it as well. We will definately stay there again.

Inn Seventies is located in the centre of the old town just inside the walls. A welcoming cocktail on arrival was greatly appreciated. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. A hearty breakfast eaten on the roof top terrace each morning offered a selection of fruits, bread and cereal available. A choice of cafes and restaurants located close by along with clean sandy beaches and a beautiful marina offering many boat excursions along the coast.The train station is conveniently located only 10 minutes walk away as is the bus station.

Greatr location and nice stay
Inn Seventies is situated in the heart of Lagos township; all shopping and restaurants are within a few meters. The view from our room was fantastic (overlooking waterfront). Only negative part is that if you have a rental car, the parking is not close by. You have to find some parking (paid or free) and then walk to the hotel with your luggage. Overall a nice experience.

Little gem
What a fab 4 night stay we had with our friends, in this central, clean and comfy hotel. Very reasonably priced and with an excellent breakfast, with good hosts. I didn't know what to expect, but we certainly weren't let down. So many good bars and restaurants to choose from on the doorstep.

A great town centre location. The facility is a bit quirky and tired, but we liked it, and the agreeable manager/hostess. A good breakfast was included on a rooftop terrace with a fine view. The room was large. Rather frugal with bathroom items, such as soap and shampoo. Overall, not posh, but a good choice.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 1 night. The overall property is located near all the restaurants and shops which was very convenient. Our unit was spacious with a lovely private balcony overlooking the main shopping area. Bed was comfortable although we were expecting a queen not two doubles pushed together. Also tended to be quite noisy at night due to street performers who played late even during the week. Main hotel staff were accomodating but not easily available to ask questions or retrieve things when needed. Breakfast that was included was delicious and well done. Overall property was clean with a great view from the main balcony/common area.

Location & room was fantastic, couldn’t have asked for anything better. The only thing that we didn’t like, was that when you showered, no matter how to position the shower curtain, water would go everywhere. So you’re either stuck with a lot of sitting water, or you’re using up your towels to clean it up. They don’t give you new towels every day, so we had a lot of water on the floor.

Not too bad or a quick stay.
Nice central location and easy access to the beaches and local transit. A bit noisy at night (windows open) and the room was a little musty probably from the air conditioner. The bathroom had some black mold on it which was a little gross. Not too bad for a quick stay and the price was right.

Some amenities mentioned were not offered
Hotel difficult to get to. Not accessible by car. Lots of shops and restaurants and the water nearby. Description said pool offered; 2 feet deep with pigeons swimming in it. No concierge as mentioned. Included breakfast only during the summer. No down duvets; just fuzzy, cheap blankets. Truly a room out of the '70's! Dark red bathroom, padding on the doors. Otherwise bathroom fixtures were fine. People were very pleasant and tried to be helpful.

good neighbourhood for walking
This property is in - as the name suggests - a 1970s building, and it shows. The rooms vary, but ours was quite spacious and comfortable, with a kitchenette and 'separate' living area - meaning the bed was farther along the room. It had several windows and a nice view onto one of the main public squares in town. Easy walking through town, though not particularly close to a beach - in March, not a big consideration. The hotel has a restrictive policy about check-ins - none permitted after 6 p.m. (4 p.m. if staying only one night). This could be trouble for someone coming from a distance. Also, check-in is at a bar/restaurant on the 6th floor. It is a bit hard to find the entrance to the place, though the building itself is clearly marked facing the square.

grea location, staff but not stroller friendly...
We stayed in this property for 2 nights for our wedding anniversary and we were travelling with our 9 months old baby. Location: its the heart of the town with a walking distance to everything- marina, old town, best restaurants, tourist attractions, supermarket and drug store. We really enjoyed evening walks with the baby. What went well: we requested baby cot and a good view when making a reservation. The hotel staff satisfied our request and we were provided with a great street and marina view as well as with the baby cot and extra towels for the baby. we also travelled from Lisbon on a rented car and the property management provided us with a parking card free of charge- which was a very kind gesture. what did not go well: the elevator (old and therefore small but its expected of an old european building) was between the floors so you have to take stairs of half of the floor to get to your floor- not very convenient for people with baby, lots of luggage, stroller or senior citizens. we only learned at the property that breakfast is not provided during the low season but there were plenty of restaurants around that served breakfasts. Finally, the entrance door to the building is very hard to open in the evenings, it opens only half way through and gets stuck to the files on the floor. Again, perfect for enter for one person at a time but a real struggle to enter with a baby stroller.

The staff were friendly and helpful. It was great having front room facing the water and overlooking town square. Did not find it noisy. Loved breakfast on rooftop in the mornings. It was good to be given a free palking card for the nearby parking station.

Really good everything - we were very happy
A fairly new building and our room had three opening doors/Windows that are double insulated. Very large room/apartment on the third floor with great views of the square and of water! This was the best queen size bed we've ever slept in and great pillows, too! Air conditioned, which we didn't need in May. And very quiet as the music in the square stops at 10pm. Had really good cooked breakfasts each day, on the top floor, overlooking the marina. We would definitely stay here again -in a flash!

Lack of staff at hotel and an old town area with b
Inn Seventies no longer serve breakfast outside the high season, without giving any notice. This is a poor show and is in keeping with an overall impression of a lack of staffing at the hotel. The delightful old town area of Lagos is badly let down by the authorities, who allow beggars to make a nuisance of themselves and Eastern European criminals to sell drugs openly.

Best choice in Lagos
Inn Seventies and Lagos ... it has been the bedt choice. The location is right in the center of historical Lagos. The rooms are large, clean and have a chic design. And not to forget the super friendly staff. The only thing missing was the roof terrace and the service there. They open the bar on the roof with the small pool and a superb view only for summer, which I totally understand. All in all .... best choice.

All positives from Inn Seventies
A late change of plan left us in need of accommodation in Lagos - and a choice of location (Marina) or price (outskirts). Happily we spotted Inn Seventies which ticked both boxes - great value for money and only beaten by the busker in the square below for being the most central spot in the town. Room had 2 comfy armchairs, table and 4 dining chairs, microwave and Nespresso machine. Bed comfy, shower good, breakfast on rooftop excellent (flawless omelettes cooked to order). Only slight negatives were that the advertised UK TV channels have disappeared and the plastic undersheet on the bed doesn't quite fit! Minor gripes though, outweighed by the location and the general experience - would happily return in the future.

Fantastic place at the center
Took the largest room, had the usual Europe expectations of a large closet that hopefully had a view. The room was enormous, big enough to have a very large party in with incredible views of the main square and views all the way to the beach with floor to ceiling windows that opened up as though they were balconies. There was a mini kitchen with good complimentary wine. Bed was comfortable. Despite being right next to the main square when you closed up the windows it was quiet enough. The room was ridiculous for just one person, but I would probably take it again just for the views. Well worth the cost.

Most convenient hotel in Lagos
There simply isn't a more convenient hotel in Lagos. Out through the front door and into the streets and alleys, filled with shops, restaurants and bars. The rooftop pool and breakfast area are delightful too. Fabulous location.
