Marina Club Suite Hotel"great location, really nice pool, short walk to everything in Lagos"




Meia Praia Lagos - Beach Club Apartments
Meia Praia Lagos - Beach Club Apartments"Had a very enjoyable stay at this property. It was quiet, comfortable, and friendly. A nice boardwalk walk into town, and a great refuge for a few days of quiet by the pool and beach. The property could use modernization: the decor is tired and there was only one electrical outlet in my unit (for toaster, kettle, living room lamp, and phone charging). Very awkward. but this was a minor irritant."
