I want to be in Lagos for 3 weeks. do you know where I can get hotel accommodation of around 1500 per night. tanx |
Re: Interesting Places To Visit In Lagos This Xmas Season by mrsage(m): 7:59am On Dec 02, 2014 |
Generally 1,500 a night is really low. But let me ask a few questions? What part of Lagos do you want to visit? The environment may not really be conducive. Hope you dont mind? Your response may determine what next. But if you can increase your budget it will be better. Kindly respond 2 Likes |

Badagry – the 2nd largest commercial town in Lagos State – is located in the western tip of Lagos city and about an hour drive from Lagos main land. There are buildings, sites and memories of this iniquitous period so that tourists can unearth the dark impact of this era.
