Lagosmar Hotel
It was a very nice experience. Very helpful and cheerful staff and good location at center of Lagos. Only the artificial light of the room was not the best. The room is very clean and i will be back of course in my next trip to Lagos.

The Salty Lodge
Friendliness and welcome of staff; provision of simple extras such as room snacks and starter kit on arrival. The kitchen was very well equipped with even a juicer for the oranges included in the room. They even had a first aid kit. Overall, this was an example of true hospitality!!
