Oluwadamilola A. ★★★★★ : This place is inarguably a one star! Can't say for the bar/lounge but the rooms are nothing to write home about! Musky smell in the rooms! Beddings were so dirty like they hadn't been laundered in a while. Requested for a change of beddings at past 7pm and they refused, their excuse being that their cleaner left for the day. Just imagine! Did they take the hotel supplies with them? The shower doesn't work, instead they have a dirty bucket and small bowl in the bathroom. Their wardrobe was also very dusty! They only gave us light overnight. There was no light during the day. There was no complimentary supplies whatsoever! No soap, beverage or towel! The noise from the lounge music at night is deafening! The entire reception is not it at all. This place is definitely no home away from home. Maintenance culture is definitely foreign to them here. I suggest you take your business elsewhere.
Gambo D. ★★★★★ : Well, well, well. Another hotel I lodged in because I had to. Wotts Garden Hotel isn't the prettiest name but I got exactly what I expected for a half decent hotel, especially considering it's located in the very quiet GRA in Alagbaka, Akure. It's a small sized hotel that was built to serve half as a hotel and half as a garden bar considering the very large space dedicated to the outdoor bar in the premises. I can easily recommend this place for someone who's not looking for luxury but decency and reasonable comfort.

Olumide O. ★★★★★ : Artwork needs to be properly preserved and catalogued
Eromonsele E. ★★★★★ : The building compared to the OAU Natural History Museum is poorly maintained. Although, it was locked when I visited, I learnt that the Museum opened only on weekdays. I enjoyed touring some sculptures located close to the site.
