The accommodation itself is excellent. This is a very new property and the apartment you get is as close to world-class as Accra can offer. The property doesnt get a five-star rating for two reasons, one quite serious.
First off, and most importantly, is the NOISE. The property is part of a mixed-use complex right at the heart of the tourist district ("Oxford Street"). As such, it is understandably in a crowded, noisy, area. But that trade-off should work fine for those looking to soak in the fun and energy of Accra. Also, the location makes dining and shopping a breeze. The PROBLEM, however, is that the management decided to also plant a NIGHT CLUB right at the top of the building. And then failed to invest in serious sound-proofing.
Throughout my stay, the blaring music continued into dawn of every day. Not sure if this is just a festive season thing but being unable to sleep properly was a major downside.
The second issue is far less serious and appears to be an oversight. The unit was stocked with water and most toiletries, except shampoo and body lotion. Though the front-desk promised to provide body lotion, they never did.
PS: The onsite restaurant doesnt open until after 4pm. It is colocated with the nighclub, which opens later in the evening.
