The staff were really friendly. The setting is very relaxed my room was lovely and clean with a comfortable bed. I will stay again next time I'm in Ghana.

Die Atmosphäre im "Somewhere nice" empfanden wir als behaglich.
Unser Zimmer war sehr sauber und zweckmässig eingerichtet. Zum Händewaschen und Duschen wurde die in Ghana typische "schwarze" Seife zur Verfügung gestellt, was wir sehr schätzten.
Speziell zu erwähnen ist das leckere Frühstücksbuffet. Alles frisch zubereitet und herrlich.

The breakfast was a delicious and fresh melody of items that would satisfy any palette. The crepes were exceptional.
There is noting that I did not like.

We (2 adults and 3 kids) stayed in the family room as well as in other rooms with 2 and 3 beds and really enjoyed our stay! The rooms are so nice and we had the best shower in Ghana :-)! All our rooms had access to a balcony to enjoy the atmosphere in the nice neighbourhood.
The staff at somewhere nice is super friendly and helpful. At night, we had drinks while the kids played in the pool.
We felt so much love for details in this place which made our time here very special and we really hope to be back one day! This will for sure be our go-to-place in Accra!

Very good breakfast! Extremely friendly staff. The just released the restaurant/Bistro with a super talented chef - we are their most lunch and dinners and were super happy with the food.

Charming aesthetic, great lounge area and amazing breakfast in the morning. Keep up the good work!
Only complaint is that there are a lot of mosquitos in the sleeping quarters. I got bitten a fair amount.

The staff was really nice and check-in was simple. I stayed in the female dorm and it was very comfortable and spacious. Each bed (single beds, not bunk beds) had their own storage trunk with a lock. I brought my own lock, but I think you can rent one from them as well. The swimming pool was nice and there are lots of common areas, easy to socialize or find your own space to chill. Like most areas in Accra, an uber is easily accessible and can be arranged yourself for cheap, or you could ask the staff.
Breakfast was okay- I got eggs and they were so greasy it made my stomach hurt for hours and I couldn't go anywhere because I kept needing to use the bathroom. We were out of toilet paper and they never brought it up, even though I had let the staff know. The place is a little pricey, but worth it given the limited hostel options in Accra.

The bed was very comfortable, and the pool was a great touch. Great decor, feeling, and philosophy. The food from the newly opened Bistro was very tasty, especially their green chilly sauce!
The room felt a bit cramped and the mosquito netting could be more effective (there were some gaps on the window frame). Our room was next to the dorms and was very noisy when a large group of students arrived late one night and was allowed to use the pool.
4.5 / 5.0
Nice atmosphere. Europeans, young people, backpackers.
Nice common areas: the lounge and pool and garden.
Good breakfast and storage rooms.
Nice bar always open by the pool.
24h reception. I had to checkout at 5 am and had no problem. I was able to pay with a European card.
Bar is cheap! 7 ghs for a coke, 10 ghs for a beer. Very good! And lots of ashtrays :)
Overall it's a very popular place for Europeans. Hotel was full and lively throught my stay.
Bar should serve some snacks (like they advertise on the blackboards). You're suggested to grab food on the stalls outside but it's repetitive and can get you stomach issues like happened to me. Location is subpar, far from everything relevant and good food venues.
Mosquito nets in the room windows had holes. Some windows wouldn't close so you hear people talking or moving.
Water pressure in the shower was awful. The shower was rusty and old and unpleasant overall.
Expensive place. Claims to be a hostel and that's what you get (no safe, no minibar, no room cleaning, no laundry...) but prices are of a 3-4* hotel in West Africa.
At night garden could do with a bit more light. Also with more comfy furniture. The wooden benches hurt after a while...

Lovely staff, peaceful spot, great vibe! We stayed for the first few nights of a longer trip in Ghana and it was the perfect spot to get over our jetlag and get our bearings. Thanks!

Very nice guesthouse with all the facilities one needs. Room design is plain but nice, room was well equipped. Pool and adjacent bar very refreshing, good cocktails. Outdoor seating area in small garden, helpful staff.
Actually nothing to complain about. The only thing that could be improved would be to have some variety in the breakfast as not everyone likes every day sweet breakfast, particularly during longer stays.

Breakfast was fantastic, local fruits, in house made bread and pancakes 😱. The pool is awesome to chill and have a beer 🍺 after a long hot day, I had the chance to see a small music and dancing performance. If you are in Accra you can not miss somewhere nice.

Nice environment, breakfast was super and big points for the cleanliness!
Booked the hostel mainly because of the pool, which was out of use for the whole weekend. That was a disappointment, since this accommodation is more on the expensive side. Other than that, no complaints.

good hangout places and rooms are ok, compared to value for money in Accra.
water was out for several hours, and staff was not able to communicate well/deal with the frustrations.

Comfortable room, in curious afro-scandi minimalist style. Hearty breakfast based on pancakes, with assorted fresh fruit and fried breads of the hour, plus any eggs or excellent omelette on demand. Cosy poolside bar open afternoon to late. Nice little restaurant a short walk away.
Location is halfway between the airport and the city centre, not especially convenient for anything but you can easily get taxis anywhere. Make sure you bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper, or if you're not used to cockerels or calls to prayer around 4 am.

We had the opportunity to see a Cockroaches Safari in the room. We came to the reception and the receptionist offer us a second room, then more Cockroaches, we try a third room, new Cockroaches were seen, and finally at the fourth room (the family studio) , we didn't see any.
Besides all the safari, the receptionist didn't apologise for the inconvenience, and didn't offer anything as a compliment, not even a single bottle of water that we needed to pay.
Also, there are people smoking all type of drugs in the swimming pool, who didn't wanted to share anything. The

The breakfast is very nice. Love the daily crepes. The decor is very artisanal and nice and that extends to the bathroom with the african black soap.
1) The rooms have a strong moldy smell. I had to buy air freshener from the supermarket. 2) The beds carry the thinnest sheet in a room that’s very cold. At least this means the a/c works well.
