Maleek's Stays Lagos "Ikeja Cozy & Affordable Shared-Non Shared Shortlets in Quiet Lagos Neighborhoods

When I was searching for a shortlet apartment and came across Maleek Stays on Booking.com, I honestly found it hard to believe the reviews. I even said to myself, “Perhaps these reviews were arranged by Bom with his friends because how can the reviews be THIS good?” 😂 Anyway, I convinced myself that I would give it a trial and fact check this so called fantastic place and customer service for myself. Oh my! Now I’m here to join the others and add my own review. And of a truth, Maleek Stays really did feel like a home away from home. I absolutely loved the traditional kitchen setting. The attendant was readily available to attend to every one of my requests, from groceries to appliances to enquiries, while also keeping great company. The space was neat, cozy, peaceful and completely free of disturbance or distractions of any sort. Everything just felt comfortable and easy. Would I go back again when I need to get some time away from home, unwind or simply have my mind relaxed? Absolutely YES! ❤️ So, Maleek, take your flowers! 🌺 You truly deserve them. 👏🏽

One aspect I found a little challenging was reaching the apartment’s host after making the initial 50% deposit. It took about three hours after when the host reached out . The Booking.com listing on the web did not provide a direct email address for the apartment, which would have been a useful alternative means of contacting the host when the mobile number provided went to voicemail. It was also a little discouraging when the host initially informed me that the room I had paid for was no longer available because someone else had booked it, as he had not received my payment notification in time. I had tried calling him immediately after making the transfer, but the call went to voicemail. I also contacted Booking.com by email, although I was unsure whether the message reached the apartment directly. Thankfully, after some back and forth, we were able to reach an agreement and I was offered another available room. In the end, the matter was resolved satisfactorily.

The accommodation exceeded my expectations. The host was very welcoming and very friendly. He was very helpful in every aspect. The amenities were top notch. It felt like home. Thank you for everything from the bottom of my heart.

It was in a calm neighborhood where one can take walks without being harassed. It’s also easily accessible and close to major roads as well as convenience stores. The staff were very amiable and helpful. They respected privacy and did their jobs.

The only issue I had was with the WiFi but it wasn’t their fault per se. It was an issue with their provider.

My stay was very nice and enjoyable 😊 thanks to the management team ☺️🙂 love it.
