About
The 17 Party Hostel - Lagos
The 17 Party Hostel sits in the Lagos City-Centre district, a five-minute walk from Forte da Ponta da Bandeira and about 500 metres from the Parque da Cidade bus stop. The property is adults-only and offers a shared kitchen, a terrace and a sun terrace, plus free Wi-Fi throughout.
Rooms are simple dormitories – an 8-bed, a 6-bed female-only and a 4-bed mixed – each with a bed in a shared room.

The rooms were super clean and cosy, with a nice balcony and a great view. I also enjoyed the rooftop terrace.
