Violet O. ★★★★★ : Beautiful experience. Lovely and spacious rooms
Danjuma M. ★★★★★ : Lovely ambience, great space, good privacy. Unfortunately I had to leave for another accommodation because of inadequate power supply. The hotel turns off power from 12 noon until 6:00 pm. I checked my complaint severally with the hotel management, and I was outrightly asked to either manage the situation or vacate. Quite unreasonable and unfortunate!

Ayodeji O. ★★★★★ : Old but recently renovated hotel, in a good location. The service is really poor. Intercom is not working, bedsheets not changed. Towel was removed after two days upon request with no replacement despite visits to the reception. Won't recommend except you have no other option.
