    Breakfast would have been a good option, even just a continental would have been good.

    Clean and great location. Staff friendly. Great value..

    The pillows were not the most comfortable, but we were given 2 more happily when we asked. The curtain on our window wasn't block out so the room was a bit too light at night - having a block out curtain should be an easy fix. After a number of walks to the beach or distant cafes I was thinking it was a tad far, but then decided to just climb, wander, get lost, and take a different route every time, and the negative turned into a huge positive, with so many things to find in the historic town!

    The location was fantastic. Loved walking over from the train station, and back when we left. There are closer places to the beach if you are only going there. The staff were very friendly. On check in we were told some people didn't like our room because the window wasn't a view window - but we walked into it and fell in love instantly and wanted to stay with it. Loved the funky shower, and the eclectic furniture. Much charm. 3 bars nearby but we did not have noise from them! Excellent 'Green Room' restaurant is a near neighbour. Old town is fantastic.

    The staff was friendly and helpful. The location right in the heart of the old town made it easy to access everywhere. The room was plain and a bit small but then it is a hostel. The bar right downstairs and 2 doors away is loud into the night. otherwise OK, Sue & Hal Vancouver Canada

    The guesthouse is above a bar which means a lot of noise, but that isn't the fault of the guesthouse. Our rollershutter wouldn't close, and the air-con wasn't great so we had to leave the doors open.

    The bed was fantastic, and the bathroom was great - full-size bathroom and one of the best showers ever! Staff super helpful and we were given a kettle to use with no extra charge.

    The beds creaked at the slightest movement. Leaky shower even when closed. No minibar to be found but clearly stated that there was and also has photos in the posting.

    Location is close to bus stop and many restaurants. A bit further from the beach but still an easy walkable distance.

    Long flights of stairs with no lift. No parking on-site. Trying to find parking nearby is quite challenging as the hotel is on a one-way road with limited space on the sides.

    Location is good. Close to the marina. Bar and restaurants nearby. Rooms are comfortable. Reception is open 24x7 and they are quite flexible about check-in times which is very helpful.

    the window didn't open and close properly, but wasn't a big deal for me. The hotel is located above a bar, sometimes the music was loud. I brought ear plugs and I was always able to sleep so that was also not a very big problem for me.

    Location is fantastic. The size of the room was bigger than I expected. The people working at the reception are friendly. The room was cleaned every other day and they gave me clean towels every other day as well!

    The hotel is a bit hard to find as there's a big sign for a "snack bar" right on top of the entrance. Even though the reception is 24h, if you arrive after midnight you'll probably have to ring the bell and wait for the staff to wake up and open for you.

    Very well located, near the marina and the bus station. Spacious room with a small fridge and air conditioner. Comfortable bed (although a bit noisy), clean sheets and towels. Small tv also was a plus

    It was very close to the central bus station, and very easy to find. The room and bathroom were a bit cramped, but adequate and clean. The air conditioner worked, and it was great to have a minibar inside the room.

    Very basic, old room but that was expected. Window needs shade that blocks sun, pretty noisy (echo from internal stairwell & outdoor noise. Better attention to detail in preparing rooms (1st room had a broken outlet hanging out of the wall, 2nd room had a wadded up napkin in the corner)

    Good location, close to pier/train/bus. Staff was friendly and helpful

    To increase the comfort a drying rack for towels/bikinis, a floor towel for the toilet, two chairs on the balcony as well a kettle could be nice. But as mentioned if only to sleep the guesthouse is of great value!

    Guesthouse with very basic services. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom in our room was good. There are a few Irish pubs downstairs which are causing a bit of noise in the evening, but it did not bother us. Good location to stay and explore Lagos, within walking distance to everywhere and there are some cafés and restaurants around.
