1. Wifi was not the best (unreliable)
2. Rooms were clean but had that old unusable scent.
3. The shower was a drip. Like a running tap.
4. Staff were exceptional. Very friendly and always ready to answer any questions
5. Breakfast have had better but needs one with patience
6. Dinner was okay, liked the club sandwich and struggnohf meal.
7. Air-conditioning was very okay.

Recommend to anyone on budget and within proxy of ikeja.

Not my first choice of accomodation but can stay any other time.

Disappointing stay on a hotel that I have used for several years dating back to year 2000. I have stayed here more than 20 times for mostly two to three nights stay due to proximity to airport. But this visit was heartbreaking. Nothing really worked. No hot water. WiFi didn’t work. Breakfast was rationed to four cuts of fried yam and lousy egg sauce that was hardly a full meal spoon. I was disappointed to say the least. Needless to say it would be my last visit!

The picture on the website is outdated. Gives you a false sense of comfort. The water was never hot or luke warm, I had to take a cold shower every day. Anytime you ordered from the restaurant it took an hour or more. The food was ok the beef was always hard as a brick like beef jerky. The toilet did not flush half the time. The bathroom was so small only a kid could fit into it. This hotel has a lot of potential. Right now it's a big space of dust.

At check in there was only one person having to deal with all requests. After 20 mins I got my room key. Room was nice and clean and bed comfortable. Shower has a plastic curtain though and the water pressure was very weak.
Hotel is close to the airport, but does not offer a schüttle service nor allow you to pay with an international CC so the hotel can pay the taxi driver. So make sure to have cash with you or load the Uber app onto your phone. Personally I was not impressed and would prefer a menu to choose western food.

The service is top notch. This is my \"go to\" hotel in Lagos. The location to the airport is perfect. The staff and service outstanding. The food is good as well. Internet is a little slow. Disappointed that the pool wasnt functional and it wasnt noted on the website. I swim, i wanted a pool. To me it was kind of important. The water was good at the hotel. Hot water for bathing. Very clean. Would have liked if the room would have been stocked with at least 2 towels, 2 hand towels and 2 face wash clothes. Still all in all. Very well done. I wish i would have been there when everything was open and functioning. It must have been beautiful abd very grand. Hopefully someday it will be again full of life, laughter music and fun.

This is a big property and with slightly dated amenities but yet comfortable. Proximity to the MM airport is 10-15 minutes and location is great.The rooms are large/huge and comfy. We stayed in the Presidential suite on the top floor. There a few fixes / updates that needed to be made when we stayed there. Breakfast service (free for 1 or 2 people) was quiet decent. I will recommend it as a very good 3.5 star hotel.

This is one of the worst hotels in the world. The staffs were rude and disrespectful. There was a severe question of security concern as the door was not locking from the inside. We were concerned about our safety, as such we called the front desk to let them know and they promise to send somebody to check it out. When the porter came, he was extremely disrespectful, disregarded our concern; he actually complained that in our attempt to forcefully help secure the back door lock, we were creating a loud noise.
He argued with us and would not even let us talk and was extremely disrespectful and condescending towards my wife. He wanted us to just accept the room without a secure lock and without questioning. After some argument, he left, saying that there will be somebody coming to change the room. Nobody came, and nobody called us to reassure us.
I had to wedge the door with two chairs to secure the back door lock as I was terrified for our safety. The toilet was dirty, there were no towels, the light kept going off and the place was generally smelly. The room was old, and the chairs were old, and the room smell musty. Due to the door situation and added to the fact that the bedsheet was itchy, I had to sleep on the chair throughout night. I was extremely disappointed with this hotel

Dislikes: Receptionists had an attitude on my arrival and couldn't be bothered to collate their papers in due time before my arrival and engaged me in a pointless waste of time, the amenities in the room were run down and there were frequent electricity cuts albeit it was restored within minutes, the hotel foods were exaggeratedly expensive for their worth.

Staff were nice & very pleasant.
However, the property is poorly maintained. Despite daily room service, if you don't want to get malaria or an infection, clean every surface & the floors with concentrated Dethol antiseptic. No dilution. Still, bathroom will ooze of urine stench even after all the cleaning & constant flushing. Must have a mosquito repellent cream, netting & spray to survive.
Before you eat or drink anything, wash hands & sanitize with hand sanitizer. Consider bathing with Dethol in your water plus an antibacterial soap say Dial antibacterial. It's that bad. By day 2, my nine year old niece was vomiting despite my cleaning efforts.
Don't eat from or touch the refrigerator without thoroughly cleaning with an antiseptic. I'm a clinical pharmacist. I know my beans.
The light comes on & goes but good thing is it doesn't last long to return.
Breakfast isn't good enough for non picky eaters.
Overall, you could manage. If you are picky, you wont.

Property:
Nice lobby and eating area; but, the room itself is outdated. I can't speak for all rooms because I didn't see the inside of other rooms. My room, standard room, needs a major renovation - especially the bathroom.

Amenities:
The wifi is the only amenity that I utilized. It worked great. The only annoying thing was having to log in like every hour. That is bad because if you rely on data, like I did, you will miss your What's App (or whichever app you use) calls and texts if you're asleep or don't check to see if you're logged on.

Food
Breakfast is included. Lunch and dinner is NOT. My complaint about this is that I had to pay for breakfast my first day. They charge 4500N for their food; which is about $12.48 USD. It's not a bad price for non stop eating, and good food. However, eating out is far cheaper.

Staff:
I saw previous reviews. A couple of them complained about the staff. My experience was totally different. The staff was great! From the desk workers to the gate guards - all great.

Safety
The guards do a great job keeping the hotel safe 24/7. The gates are always locked, every vehicle must go through the gate. If you arrive late at night, there's a 2nd set of gates that prevents access to the lobby doors. Also, when your visitor comes, the person at the desk calls up to your room to ensure they can come up or if they can leave when it's time.

Recommendation:
Please put iron in the rooms. It's annoying calling housekeeping every time you need to iron.

Overall, the nicest hotel I've ever stayed at and it wasn't $100 a night!

Stop Over

Welcome Centre is good for a an individual in transit -its a welcome centre as opposed to a hotel. Improvement is needed in the food they provide- apart from fruits and salads, the rest is poor quality. Beef not cooked till soft, melon(egusi) tasted stale(possibly yesterdays), fish over fried; bread toaster does not belong to the 21st century-should be replaced with a 'conveyor toaster'. The vegetable or plain omelette was very good
Serving bowls are too small even for a light eater like myself. The deluxe room I stayed was comfortable, however, powdered milk that do not dissolve fully in hot water is not really good enough
The whole of the internal space(s) should be air conditioned and not just bedrooms and reception areas. The hall ways and corridors are very hot and uncomfortable

Access road to hotel is diabolic - not hotels fault
Hotel staff are very helpful and polite

Mrev yes of the our stay at the Welcome Centre

Although our overall experience was good, I have to point out a few things with which I was unhappy.

Firstly, the room we had booked was not available. We had booked a Superior Room with King Bed and non-non smoking.

We were put up in a smoking, Deluxe room.

The key card to the room door was not available. We were given a manual key for the door.

The room lock mechanism was also broken. That had to be fixed.

We also lost water pressure at some point as well.

With all of the above issues, our experience was a good one.
