Casa Cataplana Accommodations

Small clean apartment in the middle of the old town very close to shops and restaurants and quick walk from a beach and a parking lot (which was paid). Kitchen amenities were provided and air conditioning was a huge bonus in the summer. Beautiful view of the sunrise over the water from the shared patio.

Because of its central location it was rather noisy at night especially if someone wants to sleep before midnight, it didn't bother us too much but was still noticable. Being on the top floor meant dealing with slanted ceilings which for me (191cm height) meant bending over quite often. If you drive to Lagos be prepared to either pay every night for parking or hunt for free spots as they fill up quick in the old town.

Great location, clean apartment, host is nice and responds quickly.

The ceiling on the top floor is slanted, we accidentally knocked our heads on it a few times. Also noisy at night since across the street from loud karaoke club that goes on all night long.

The size of the apartment was great and the location was excellent with respect to proximity to beach, shops and restaurants. The beds were comfortable

The apartment was in an area of restaurants and bars and it was very noisy. One bar in particular was open until 4am, every night. It was very hard to sleep. It was not very clean and there was dust everywhere. We found a few items of children's clothing, left in a drawer and some emty alcohol bottles left in a cupboard.

The apartment had a kitchenette so we could prepare our own meals. There was a balcony with a great view of the coast but it is a shared space with the next apartment.

The apartment is on the top floor and therefore has low ceilings towards the edges of the room. The location is in the area of many restaurants and bars so a night could get noisy depending on the weather and how many people are outside. The apartment is on the 4th floor with only stairs. This might be a problem for someone with limited mobility.

The view from the terrace is outstanding. The kitchen was a fully equipped. The location is just in the very center of the old city. Couple minutes to the beautiful beach.

The location is in the very center of the busy area, which means it can be quite noisy at night. So if person is sensitive to music, people singing and laughing - it's better to have good earplugs with you ;)

Tastefully decorated and well equipped. Claudio is most helpful and informative

My only complaint, however minor, was the cover on the drain in the bathroom was broken

The apartment is located in the center of the city of Lagos. It is surrounded by pubs, restaurants, and shops that stay open until late, but we didn't suffer from the noise. The house is a 10-minute walk from the beaches and discount shops. The house seems small in the photos, but for two people it is very spacious. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and clean, there is also a microwave that can be set up as a conventional oven. The water from the faucet, despite being drinkable, didn't taste good—perhaps due to the drought—but it was fine for cooking and washing. In the shops, bottles up to 5 liters can be found and fit perfectly in the little fridge. The bed is comfortable, and a set of heavy sheets was left in the wardrobe because the nights in Lagos tend to be a little cold. In the morning, you can hear the sound of seagulls lingering on the rooftop, as in many other houses in Lagos. There is a shared balcony with the neighboring guests where you can hang out clothes or enjoy the view of the ocean. The bathroom was clean, and the shower's water pressure was good. In our house, there was also a beach umbrella.

We didn't find a socket in the bathroom, so if you need to use the hairdryer, you'll have to use the one in the kitchen. There is only one free socket near one side of the bed; otherwise, you'll have to unplug one of the bedside lamp or use the one at the foot of the bed. In the bathroom there is a mirror but it isn't placed on the bathroom sink.
