Somewhere Nice

Unbelievable value for the quality you get. I couldn’t believe when i entered the hostel how nice everything looked. The pool is nice, beds are super comfy and the breakfast is amazing. They even gave me an early check in when i arrived early in the morning. Many thanks for that all staff 🙏🏽 10/10

Didn't stay here and I wasn't able to cancel booking.

This was my first ever solo trip and I loved this hostel. The staff are all extremely friendly and helpful, especially Destiny at the reception who was extremely helpful. The breakfast is great. All the other guests I met were very friendly and the atmosphere was great all around. Rooms are comfortable. I highly recommend this place.

Wow, what can I say. This place certainly lives up to it's name. I stayed here on a couple of occasions during my time in Ghana. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. Particularly Destiny on reception. I had one of the nicer rooms in the same building as reception. Everything was perfect. They even provide a cafetiere, coffee and kettle. I was very comfortable. The common areas were pleasant with plenty of seating. The pool, a godsend in the heat. Chi chi who runs the bar was a definite highlight. There was a good mix of people hanging out there. Both locals and tourists. Food was tasty but portions were small. And they often do not have the things listed on the menu (despite the menu being on wooden blocks which can be removed. Food was supposed to me served until 21/22 (can't remember exactly) but one one occasion it was no longer available way early, without any warning. Across the street is a bar where I hung out with locals and watch football. There are also a couple of basic places to get food. Somewhere Nice is a true refuge from the hussle and bussle of the city.

I stayed in one of the rooms which was clean, had AC, light and running water. Wifi works throughout the whole area. The food was a very positive surprise - the reasonably priced vegetarian avocado sandwiches and wraps were so tasty that I ordered a second round. The breakfast was also nice, if not large it contained bread with several types of jam, several tropical fruits and some smoothie which was sufficient to stay the day. There is a fridge where one can put some food/drinks subject to space and they have clean tap water in the sink. The pool works fine but is somewhat small and more to cool yourself than to swim. Staff is very nice and the area is safe with gated walls. Most balconies are on the street side and there is some sound but not more than one should expect when living in a bigger city. The location is close to the airport and reasonably close to the city center although not on walking distance to the main sights. There are many backpackers and travelers staying at the site making it a good hub if you are interested in connect with others for travel. All in all this seems to be one of the better options for those seeking hostel type stays in Accra.

The AC was not working in the female dorm and after notifying the reception, they kindly offered us a free upgrade to a different room. This kind of service is not found everywhere - but here at 'Somewhere Nice'. And as always, breakfast here is yummi, healthy options are avaialble and the mood is good.
