Aqualuz Lagos by The Editory

"Was very apprehensive going to this hotel as reviews weren't great the week before we went. Have to say we had an amazing time. Hotel is fab Room was massive,spotless and very comfortable. Cleaned every day. Ideal location 5 mins from town & beach. Breakfast was great. Pool lovely always got a sun bed. Gym is out of this world. All staff very friendly & helpful. Lagos is beautiful."

"This place is a Maze!...with very little decent directions or maps on how to get around. Be aware that you might be walking around in circles for a while trying to find your room or figure out which elevator to use. (The elevators have tiny numbers on the top left, you have to use specific ones for your area/room. These elevator numbers should be a lot bigger!). The signage in the elevators are so confusing. It only numbers specific rooms, even though you can actually get to more rooms via the specific lifts. When you come out of the lift, there is very little signage, so you can easily get lost. You kind of have to see it to believe it. The breakfast is extremely standard and not at all fresh. The concentrated juice is gross, and coffee is standard , both out of machines. The layout is confusing and queues form all over the place, creating backlog. I would recommend going early. The bar/breakfast area could do with a refresh. The tables are sticky with plastic chairs scraping off the ground. At night time, this is the "bar" which has large LED lights, and zero ambiance. (Nicer areas indoors near reception to relax.) The pool area is large with lots of sun loungers, but the sun loungers are never cleaned off. There is bird poo on many of the ones, under the trees especially. The rooms are fine, bedrooms and bathrooms have had a little upgrading, you can see, but it's kind of Ikea style. Basic enough. Shower is good and strong. No shelf in the shower for shampoo etc. We had a smell outside on our balcony of sewage in the mornings especially. You can see the hotel is cutting back on small things and even though the location is pretty good, close to Lagos, I would not recommend this hotel to my friends, as I don't feel it's up to 4 star standard."

"Avoid. This is not a 4 star hotel. Poorly maintained, dirty, filthy and dangerous pool side areas, terrible breakfast, beds and pillows not fit to lie on. The week we were there a man had to be brought to hospital because one of the pool slabs fell into the kids pool at the shallow end and nearly lost his big toe."
