    I asked for the cheapest room so if course it was basic- you get what you pay for. (140ghs a night, marvellous) I should've brought my mosquito net- the bed was comfy but the pillows weren't, there isn't glass in the windows but there is mesh. (The mozzies must've come through the cracks in the door). The lock was just a wee padlock but I felt safe cos only the guests could get to that part anyway. There's a plug in fan & the view over the sea is amazing (though the amount of rubbish in Ghana breaks my heart). There were 2 shared toilets and bucket shower- it was fine. I don't think even the must expensive room has ac (but prob have their own bathrooms) but it's all good value. I loved the sounds of the waves and the birds singing. There are cats running about too. 😸 They also let me in rather late one night (I woke them up, sorry guys) & were nice about it. The food is veggie (and delicious) which was a nice surprise after Ghana's usual meat/fish heavy diet. I had forgotten what mushrooms look like! The place is in a really central handy location. I got taken (by friendly folk) to the art market and to Abajo arts centre and saw a local traditional band- it was really good. I also saw the Kake Dance Ensemble practicing- 65 children dancing, drumming, singing (original songs!) and doing the most fantastic circus acrobatics (over hard concrete! No-one fell!). Look them up & follow them on the socials. They practice at the Rising Phoenix 3 times a week. All in all, it's an exciting, friendly, vibrant place.

    This place has a lot of potention, however none of it seemed really used. The sanitary is poor, and the rooms were dark. There was no light in the bathroom, neither was there a door, nor a sheet or toilet paper. There's a lot on the menu card, however almost nothing was in stock. The food was too spicy to eat for an European person and they refused to make us something else. Very unfriendly staff in the kitchen. The bar however was quite alright, the bartender was very kind and made very nice cocktails. Also, there is a nice place to sit and chill. Swimming is not possible. The breakfast was alright, but we were glad we only stayed one night. Would NOT recommend to anyone, unless you like smoking weed all day. Deserted place.

    I'm amazed the authorities are letting this hotel run in the condition it is in. There isn't even a bed in the rooms. It is just a mattress on the floor. The bathroom is moldy and falling apart. The owner actively avoids accountability for the state of his hotel. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, but especially not women. The only positive thing I can think of is the view which they have probably no say in.

    I needed the cheapest accommodation in Accra on my way from Togo base on my budget and this hotel was the only option and also in Osu, because I want to do some activities around the following day. 150/ night room and guys, I will not recommend this hotel to my clients or anyone. I know it's shared bathroom but the place is a not not for me. Room full of mosquitoes, I mean you can see them moving and all over. The location is not safe for me Customer service was great, they attended to me nicely and helpfully The price does match any of it amenities

    Not too wonderful a hotel. It is closer to the Atlantic ocean with waves across the shore. However everywhere stinks

    Not recommendable. Room wasn’t cleaned, open wires next to the power outlet, and everything is overpriced.

    This is a fun place to stay for the view of the beach and the vibe. But the rooms are pretty basic and very hot - but it was pretty cheap. The staff were sometimes friendly.

    Exclusive location with amazing views. Some may be afraid as it's off the beating track, but don't fret and enjoy your trip. Management is stellar πŸ‘Œ

  • 3/5 domilese s. 1 year ago on Google
    The rooms sincerely does not justify the price especially the bed. I dunno if the sea is what makes the price go up but not a bad place though. It just looks overpriced.

  • 1/5 LOSNUE 1 year ago on Google
    There is no wifi, no running water, no A/C No nothing. The view is good. That is the only good thing in here, but lots of trashes are in the sea. Also it is too hard to find the location. You have to pass through some dirty places to come. It does not worth the price. Pay little more and go other better place.

    I enjoyed the fresh sea breeze except that the rooms lack the touch of beauty and modernity. Water supply is poor with poor ventilation.

    Very lovely accommodation. Just by the beach and you can have a sea view from your balcony. I enjoyed my night there and would visit again. Good and pleasant host.

    It’s so unique. Interesting people. Yes it is basic. Cold water, show restaurant. But I still think about it 10 years later! The views...the drumming...the Rastafarians. Great exposure to local Accra.

    They are improving slowly which I great. The manager is friendly and nice and some of the staff is good ! The food is ok and is also improving. The ambience is great, the view is wonderful. Don't hesitate to tell when something is wrong because they make the effort to correct things when needed as much as possible. I enjoyed my stay !
