Hostels in Lagos

Julianna Germany

I really like Filipe and the way she goes beyond for her guests and treats us like family. She really wants the best for everyone and you see that in all her actions. I also love the kitchen and it's facilities and the patio outside where you can hang out and eat your meals :) everything is super clean and the views are beautiful of the river. I also love the location and how close it is to everything andits so easy to make friends here. I also love the reception staff and the fact that they try to integrate everyone by doing weekly dinners etc. they're also so helpful and supportive and informative of Lagos and where you can go and very social and welcoming! Definitely stay here if you come to Lagos :) the beaches and bus stops and restaurants and farmers markets are all very close as well. If u want u can also book tours!

This was my 5th visit to Lagos & my 2nd stay in Olive Hostel Lagos. The difference between Olive Hostel Lagos & other hostels/hotels/airbnbs is that it actually feels like a home. I came with a very modest itinerary of watching the sunrise every day, going for a morning swim, taking rooftop morning naps, spending the day at the beach & regenerating in the hostel in the evening... recharging in a beautiful place. In Olive Hostel I was able to combine the "vacation" feeling of being away with the comfort of staying at home. Social: the atmosphere of Olive Hostel is lovely & you can usually find someone else on the same wavelength as you; otherwise it is also possible to just keep to oneself if the social batteries need charging. While the hostel has relaxing, harmonious vibes there are plenty of party options a few minutes walk away, should one be in the mood for festivities. Technical : unlike most hostels, there are actually enough bathrooms/showers for everyone; the kitchen has enough storage for groceries and has plenty functional utensils, dishes etc. In fact, this is the only place I ever think to cook. The outdoor patio, the balcony, the rooftop, the living room/reading room all offer plenty of space to relax and chill on slower days, evenings, or during bad weather. Cleanliness: as a clean freak who usually considers everything to be dirty, I can testify that the Olive Hostel ist super clean. I truly appreciate the efforts made in this regard, considering the number of beach/backpacker shoes this place must see. Olive Hostel also offers a laundry service, but if you like doing your own laundry there are 2 laundromats within 1km. Staff & organisation: I found booking/check-in/check-out to be uncomplicated & felt that staff were always motivated to find solutions for individual needs. Everyone is very kind and helpful & wants you to be comfortable.

Quiet, clean, comfy and spacious beds with black out curtains!! This is the place to go in Lagos if you value your sleep!! They've also thought of everything - numbered hangers for your towels, drying rack for bathing suits outside, lots of space for your things inside your bunk, nice yard area with sun chairs, a small pool, and foosball table. Had such great quality sleep here! And easy self check in and check out.
