高橋旅館(The Highbridge Guest Lodge)

We spent our first two nights in Ghana here and it was a relatively peaceful stay! PROS: - very quiet - very comfy bed in a clean, spacious room - good air-con - friendly, if not a tad shy, staff - peaceful/beautiful breakfast area — it was cooler (temperature-wise) eating outside than it was inside our room! - pretty garden and oh-so-quiet: you’d hardly know you were in a big city! - breakfast took forever to be made on our first morning and we ended up being late to meet our guide; for the second morning, we pre-ordered breakfast the night before … TBH, we didn’t think they’d remember (nothing was written down), but they did and it was ready right on time! CONS: - upon arrival the bathroom bin was still full in our room from previous guests (staff did apologize for this and emptied it straight away) - the light from the hallway was shining into our room all night - the bed sheets had holes in them; there was no blanket on the bed - the tap in the bathroom sink wouldn’t turn on all the way (a poor feat of engineering) - thin walls: we could hear the TV in the room next to us (the person had it on very late and then again just after 6am each morning) - we were woken by staff on the first morning with an unexpected phone call just before 7am (apparently it was a breakfast reminder, though we hadn’t requested the wake-up call) - wifi was spotty at best - though we can’t really speak to the location as we never left the hotel except in a car, when we did leave we couldn’t see much in the area as we drove by TIPS: - don’t forget to turn on the water heater switch if you want hot water!

A great place to stay for work at the University of Ghana. Very tastefully decorated and with friendly personnel always ready to help.
