We loved everything about this property. We booked a studio apartment. We were so comfortable. Walking distance to everything, even the laundry mat. The view of the ocean was great. If we ever come back to Lagos, we would want to stay here. We wouldn’t even consider another. Thank you, so much Jessica for all your help and recommendations.
