What guests think

At Lagos City Center Guest House & Hostel, travelers highlight the central, walkable location and good value, friendly staff, and useful shared kitchen, while recurring downsides include unreliable hot water and misleading information about on-site parking.

Rooms are often spacious with balconies or terraces, but some guests mention street noise on weekends and the building feels older. Cleanliness is generally praised, though recurring maintenance issues include inconsistent hot water, clogged drains, and occasional bad odors. Overall, expect a simple, practical stay with a few trade-offs.

Great room, great location, easy to walk everywhere. It was advertised as parking on site. There is no parking. Almost impossible to find in the streets. I had to pay to use a parking garage. Other than that it was great.

This was a great place to stay. The location is perfect, the rooms were clean and spacious, and use of a kitchen is a nice bonus. Hot water is a bit hit or miss but it works well once you figure it out.

Got what we paid for, for the most part. No parking on premises even though it said they had free parking. Had to park 1 mile plus away (uphill!). Private room did have a wonderful private terrace, but watch your head if you’re over 5’10’. I scalped myself pretty good! Location was good. Close to everything Lagos has to offer. Very walkable to all the shops, restaurants, bars, beeches, boat tours, etc.

Such a simple and wholesome hostel. A classic hostel stay. The room was spacious for 6 people. Theres only one bathroom for 10 people. The room is cleaned daily. Theres a mini kitchen and fridge to store food. The hostel is right near the city center. Theres so many fun things to do in this area like salsa at Guanabana, night out with good music at the Tavern, karaoke near the city center. Beach/ Algarves are a 10 min walk away. Id stay again! Staff was super nice and helpful

Location was great. Right in the middle of the city center, 15min walk to popular beaches, 20min walk to train station. The place was old but it is in an old area so it was to be expected. I had a twin room to myself and it was in the top floor and it had a balcony. Pretty good! Staff was friendly. Had an issue with a key for one of the doors and someone came within 10mins to help me (outside business hours). Only thing is that the water is heated with solar panels and during a 5min shower the water went cold. All in all highly recommend!

Op zich was alles in orde maar ons warm water werkte niet... Het alternatief was om beneden te douchen bij de gedeelde kamers, maar we betalen natuurlijk voor een aparte badkamer. Er werd gezegd dat het ging beteren omdat het met het weer zou te maken hebben, de laatste dag hadden we 2 minuten warm water.
