I loved the location, it was right on the waterfront and very accessible to the marina for water activities, the old town, and the beaches. Its a smaller hostel with maybe less than 20 guests at a time so I had a lot of privacy in the bedrooms and bathrooms. The all female bedroom had lots of hooks, 2 vanities, a small lockable box for your belongings and the beds were very comfy. The common areas in the hostel were very cozy and genuinely felt like a home; there was a TV, dining room, and book shelf with tons of books. The hostel is quiet and definitely draws a more mature crowd which was nice for a more relaxed vacation in Lagos. The rooftop was an added bonus where you could watch the sunrise/sunset over the water.
I might just be too used to bigger and newer hostels with electronic entry systems but it was a little annoying having to deal with a physical key to get into the hostel and then having to lock/unlock the room with a key everytime you leave. Sometimes, the room would remain unlocked the entire day because someone else forgot to lock the door, however I did not experience any theft or issues in the 3 days I was there. I didn't like that the kitchen and reception would only open after 8:30 am as many people get their days started well before 8:30 am and need access to the kitchen for breakfast. While I appreciated the free baggage storage, there is no storage room but just a corner of the lobby that you're asked to leave your belongings and cannot keep them past 5 pm. I also wish the bedrooms had bigger lockers to store your entire belongings, especially considering that the doors do not automatically lock.
